    That is very nice. Do these blooms last 4-5 days?

    Thanks! Kelly - the blooms last just one day, maybe 2 at most. But it blooms frequently, sometimes with just one or two, and sometimes like this. I haven't figured out how to make the blooms all face one direction though!

    Spectacular. What conditions do you give it?

    It's quite small - that wooden mount is maybe 6" long. Brett - it is grown intermediate-warm, but seems to flower after I forget to water it a week / it gets a bit cooler. I haven't figured out which one yet!
