Default Two plants from SVO

I bought them in August and they are blooming first time for me.

When am I supposed to stop watering? Now or After finshed blooming?

1. Ctsm. Crownfox Voodoo 'SVO' AM/AOS x Ctsm. Donna Wise 'Kathleen' AM/AOS





2. Cyc. William Clarke x Cyc. warscewiczii

I like them both, but that first one is really striking. Well done.

Stop watering when the leaves start to turn yellow and half have droppod.

I've always wondered what the Crownfox x Donna Wise would look like. I really like the dark color and waxiness on that one. The William Clarke x warsewicszii is really cool too. I would not have guessed that it would be so star-like. Both parents of this cross tend to have more rounded petals.

That's a very nice Catasetum cross (nothing different to be expected with such great parents!). How big are those flowers?

as per the Cycnoches.... hhhmmm....maybe it will improve in future seasons... as for now, it's not convincing me

Now that the flowers are fully open, the width is about 2.5" (6.25cm). The color has gotten much darker.
