I been want one of these for years but they have been very hard to get. Finally, what you see in the pic is on its way to me now.

Roy, it is so beautiful. I love the dark blooms. I bought one a while back but it is so slow to set bud. I will just need to enjoy yours until mine decides to do it's thing.

Very nice, Roy. I picked up one of them from a local nursary last year not knowing what it was ( It did not have a tag). You are going to love it.

It's a beauty, Roy. I've had mine for five years now, but have yet to see any blooms. At nearly two feet wide (approximately 61 cm), and with around fourteen leaves, I don't think it's a baby. But whatever I'm doing must not be to the plant's liking--and least not enough to encourage it to bloom. So I'll just admire the picture of your plant for the time being.

Steve & Marilyn, from what I've been able to learn out this plant and Rhynchostylis is that LOTS of light is required to get them to flower, atleased thats what is done here.
