That's beautiful! Do you have a picture of the whole plant? How long do the flowers last?

I took a picture of the plant today and after three times of trying to upload it with no success I quit trying. I don't know what the problem is but I will try again tomorrow.

The plant likes to grow bright and a little on the dry side in a basket or mounted. I give it full morning sun and bright afternoon shade. It is watered a couple of times per week and does not need a winter rest. I use MSU fertilizer ever ten days.

WOW! Stunning! How big is the overall plant? I may have to add this to my want list!

such lovely blooms!

Paul, the plant is growing in a four inch basket and would qualify as a miniature. The pseudobulbs are about one inch and the leaves are between four and six inches. The flowers are one and three quarters.
