    Very nice, Piotr. How big is the plant? I'd also be interested to know if it is a sequential bloomer when you find out.

    Flowers should open in greater number, in Clyton is written "open simultaneously". As well there: "Pseudobulbs... 5cm apart... 7.5-15 x 2.5-6.5cm ... leaves 22-35 x 5-7cm... Inflorescense... 26cm... Flowers 3cm across..." Where my plant: 5-7 cm apart, up to 9-10cm pseudobulbs, lLeaves 25cm, infl 23cm so far, and flowers 4.5cm diameter. I just looked in GH and another bud slowly getting ready... ;-)
