I just got first one of these a few weeks ago! Thanks for sharing. Something to look forward to!

I've got a couple different ones in bud right now and am very excited!

...'Red Robin' X 'Scarlet' Red from mountain orchids :)

ooh, awesome!
I have one of those and now I know what to look forward to!

great job!

Congrats on the bloom!!!! Love that red!

I cant find the pic again darn it but there was a blog on some people hiking in the mountains of new guinea where these are natives. The whole side of the hill was covered with these in pink, purple, red, yellow, orange and combinations of each. They commented you couldn't walk without stepping on them they were so thick GASP!!! was thinking if you flew over would they be telling us something in pixelated color?

like S.O.S in orchid crop circles :biggrin:

plant won co winner species of the month at the june OS meeting.. other co winner Cattleya tenebrosa :)

FYI

What a strange and wonderful plant! really cool!!!
