The splendidum I am growing in lava rock; it is a very small one, no blooms yet, but it is considered warm to hot growing. The ampliatum I am growing as a mounted plant, which it seems to like, it is considered hot growing.

I'm really leaning towards the mule-ears at this point. There are some monsters and some reasonably sized ones too. It seems like finding them for sale is the toughest part of their culture!
