Default Odontoglossum praestans



Odontoglossum praestans grows easily for me and blooms religiously every June or so. It is very compact and I usually have 4 or 5 spikes in a 4 inch pot.

Wonderful photo. Really like the natural background. So much more lively than plain black

Odontos are my dream orchids! I barely can grow Odontoglossum grande and perhaps harryanum! The flowers look great against the sky!
