Default Restrepia sanguinea 'Walter' HCC/AOS

This is one of my favorite orchids. It is in bloom much of the time. I'm growing it in a warm greenhouse, which is not ideal, but it does OK. I have it in a clay pot inside another clay pot with sphagnum moss between them. This keeps the roots cool enough. The bottom 1/3 of the pot is large chunks of styrofoam and the upper 2/3 is sphagnum moss.

Really nice one.

I've found one of my Restrepias grows well with styrofoam in the bottom, even in quite a small pot.
