This is a great little bloomer and easy to bloom. 2 spikes 15 half inch blooms on each. ENJOY....Jim.

I love that festive flower...my plant bloomed last summer also giving me two spikes and a lot of flowers on each spike. I got it from the grower mounted on a stick so I didnt mess with it; I just water it everyday...
I think its now recently called:
Leomesezia Lava Burst 'Puanani'

Gorgeous! I LOVE this orchid, the color is fantastic. I wish that mine wasn't mounted, mounts and I don't get along well, and my Lava Burst blooms only once a year, with 3-4 blooms....

Beautiful blooms. Nice background in pic 1 also! I'm looking forward to my little Lava Bursts showing off.
Good Growing,
Tony

Good growing! Mine only makes 1 spike per growth, but I'm stretching things a bit by growing it in a pot with Cryptanthus, so the medium is a bit of a compromise between the needs of both. After seeing some of the spectacular results people get when this chid is really happy, I'm going to take it out and pot it separately, no more compromise! lol

Well that explains why I couldn't find it on the RHS registry

Awesome job growing and blooming this one. It's a favorite of mine. It's a real ladderer. It keeps trying to climb to the heavens.

Thanks for sharing.
