I've wanted one of these for a long time. I finally bought a seedling from Miranda Orchids last year. This is its first flowering. The plant is only 3 inches tall and the flower is 2 inches in diameter.

I just grew it along with my standard cattleyas. It probably got a bit less light than they did because they shaded it bit.

Indoors, zone 5-6. I grow at a west window with LED light supplementation.

A lot of bang for the buck! Very nice to see. He'll be a speaker at an upcoming mtg. so if he sells I'll look for this one.
