Hmmmm
Sounds like your Your Encyclia cordigera resents disturbances, but I find that this Encyclia in particular [and quite a few of my others] can be re mounted or re potted at will and seem to...

Coiliostylis

I thought about a couple of things I perhaps should add:

I try to keep a minimum 50% humidity during the warmer rapid growth months and although this is not at all required for Coiliostylis they...

Coiliostylis ciliaris is easy to tell from C. oerstedii if it is blooming. C. ciliaris has the distinctive 'eye-lash' fringe on its flowers that C. oerstedii lack. The lateral lobes of C. oerstedii...

OK! That's green Hornet

Eric:
As I predicted one of the many preeminent biologists of this board came up with the answer in no time! It's amazing to me how fast things disappear when I don't refer back to them often. I...

Thanks
I have fallen way behind learning the new generic and specific assignments for orchids that used to all be called Encyclia 'x'.

What is Encyclia 'Green Hornet' anyway?

Green Hornet used to be listed as a cross between Encyclia cochleatum x Encyclia lancifolium. But, cochleatum is now in the genus Anacheilium. According to Carl Withner Anacheilium lancifolium is an...

Your orchid is yet another Encyclia that has now been reclassified into a different genus.
Currently Euchile mariae is the accepted name.

It's a Cattcyclia that looks similar, but not identical to, the well known Cattcyclia 'Pine Knot'. So, I'll go with 'Yucatan' too.

Yup! You've got a spike. Once we see a picture of the flower it will be easy to identify [I think!]. Looking at the pseudobulbs it probably is Anacheilium cochleatum. This is one of the Encyclias...

I concur with the previous responses: You could pot it up in something like straight tree fern, but tampensis definitely does best mounted.

Nomenclature of Encyclia

E. phoenicea is the correct name according to Withner. Quite a few Encyclias of the 'clam shell' type have been put in new genera, but not this Cuban/Bahamian one.
It is listed as Epidendrum...

It is, without any doubt, an Encyclia. The reason no one has been able to ID it is because [I am 90% sure] that it is a hybrid. Some fantastic primary crosses continue to be made within this genus....

Great photos and thank you for posting them here!
Yes, this Encyclia does look a lot like tampensis. It's one of my personal favorites: easy to grow and flower. It lives next to tampensis and a...

Very nice plant! Good job.
This one has been sometimes difficult for me to bloom. It lives along side all my other Encyclias. Perhaps this is my problem? This pretty orchid is not an Encyclia - it's...

Encyclia culture

I treat my Encyclias exactly like my species Catts. Once a week watering probably isn't frequent enough for an Encyclia potted in the medium you describe. You are correct: as with all epiphytic...

Those of you that wish to purchase this species might do better searching for Prosthechea livida. This is another "Encyclia" that has been re-classified.
