Just getting started with one bloom, but there's a bunch more on the way. Love this plant!

I've had this one for about 7 months growing under my 400W HPS light (cattleya light levels, about 3000 fc)
I have it in a 'cool pot' in sphagnum and I dunk it weekly in RO water. A fan runs on it as well. It has rewarded me with 8 new leaves so far and seems happy.

Very very nice. Looks well cared for and healthy. When it starts to cool, watch the watering so you don't lose the roots. Nice color.

Beautiful! Do you find that they prefer cool temperatures?
