It'd be cool if you could let us know about the progress of this plant.

Oh...

Look at that, maybe I have heard of it...

It went by a different name a while back.

Encyclia brassavolae.

Imagine that.

I'd still consider it somewhat of a rarity in the US trade, even though it can be found if you know where to look (and know what the old name is, apparently).

People should chime in soon...

Still, nice plant! :)

I was given a mature division a few months ago.

I have it potted in PrimeAgra (LECA) contained in an EcoWeb pot, so it gets LOTS of air to the root system.

It is sitting on the bench next to Anacheilium (Encyclia, Prosthechea) cochleatum - which grows and blooms it's head off - and appears to be doing well. Think "shaded, cattleya conditions".

what Alliance are it in then?

The cattleya alliance. :)

I lied.

I was watering today and saw it was in chopped up EcoWeb in a plastic pot - still lots of air flow.

thanks guys *SS*

One more: Mine is in spag - pure spag :shock: When can i repot it in to my regular media?

The smartest time is when it is forming a new growth with the accompanying new roots.

oki, ray - but now to the noob question - how does new growth look like - this is my first not-phal or dendro :shock:
