A white Epc. Rene Marques 'Flame Thrower'
Actually this is Epi. pseudepidendrum x Caularthon bicornutum
I got this as a compot of 4 plants from Hoosier orchids when they went out of business severs years ago. 2 seedlings died, the two remaining ones, this one is the first to flower, I like the white lip and the lighter petals and sepals. Flower size is slightly smaller then the "Flame thrower" which I have a large specimen of.
So what would this be called an epicaul?
If anyone else has this cross from Hoisiers I would like to know, or do I have the only two of this hybrid?
Four flowers on first spike is exciting, since my "Flame thrower" took several flowerings and years before it started to have more then 5 flowers per spike

Love it! I just bought one yesterday, 2/15/2018, that has 2 previously bloomed stalks and 2 new ones. I am hoping for 2 spikes this year.
