Stanhopea wardii blooms
 

Just wanted to share...
This is the 3rd consecutive year it blooms under may care. First blooming year it had one spike, the next year it had 2 and this year it has 3 spikes. Unfortunately, the blooming season coincide with my normal vacation period. The first time it bloomed I wasn't there. When I got home, the blooms were already fading.

I still haven't found a suitable place to hang the basket so the photos might seem a bit strange.:biggrin:

Loving this and congrats. :blowkisses::cloud9::goodjob

well done- can you show the basket and explain the medium and approximate care?

Sure, look here.

The basket is lined with a layer of sphagnum and in the center there's a mix of bark+LEKA+Perlite.

In winter, temps are around 12 to 18ºC max (night / day) and in summer somewhere between 22 to 28ºC (again night / day). Humidity is low, around 20% day time and 50% with open windows at night. Water it as the top layer feels dry, which means once/week in winter and every 3 days in summer.
Heavy fertilizer with all waterings.
It has been under low light, near a small window, but as I changed home now is near a really large window with bright indirect light, a north window without any direct sun (you'll notice in the photos that its leaves are somewhat yellowish. It will adapt, for sure.
