Welcome to the forum! I also use a tent in a bright, south-facing window. I grow in Colorado so the tent is mostly for humidity and warmth in the winter. A bit unorthodox, but I've had good luck...

I take some solace in the fact that I have good pictures. There also may still be a piece of it out there somewhere. I divided it successfully about three years prior and sold one lead for a nice...

Sad to hear it!

I had a really nice 'Divina' x alba, also from H&R that I was planning to try and get awarded. I decided to divide it to try and introduce some vigor and lost both divisions. ...

I appreciate the extra info! Since I'm new to the board, I'd appreciate your thoughts on asking other members about divisions. Are people typically OK with that or is it frowned upon?

Not trying to be tacky here, but do you ever offer divisions? I've been looking for 'Ann' AM/AOS x 'Puanani' for a long time!

Highjack away!

Thanks for jumping in and posting those pics. Maybe it's a Cattleya thing? User SouthPark mentioned similar temp-related behavior in Australia. Interesting! Now that I think of it, I did notice...

It's definitely been a lesson in patience, but I love that most of my plants bloom in the dead of winter (now). Brightens the short winter days!

Yes, indeed. I've understood how temperature can affect overall growth (in Colorado my plants grow slowly), but to impact the flower coloration is a new discovery for me.

Really interesting background on this variety. I've noticed similar bloom differences but didn't realize it was temperature related until recently.

These blooms are from the same plant, but in warmer conditions the flares are gone. Apparently, this variety needs nighttime temps in the 50's to get good flaring. I was just getting the flares to...
