This is a clone that I obtained from Carmela Orchids three years ago. This is the second bloom for the plant that is grown in an 8-inch square wooden basket with no media. The plant is 8 inches tall (measured from the top of the basket to the apex of the crown). There are six raspberry colored flowers on the single inflorescence. The flowers have a natural spread of 4-1/2 inches. The plant owned by R.F. Orchids in Florida had 9 huge flowers with a natural spread of almost 6 inches when it was awarded an FCC by AOS in 2004. I have a ways to go to get my flowers to that size.
