    From Andy's, summer of 2009 and second blooming. This one isn't too happy because I think it prefers moist conditions and the mount gets a bit dry. It's a huge thing (when I say huge, I mean that it occupies more than 1 square foot of space) and the spaces (internodes?) between pseudobulbs are a bit long for my liking. I keep wanting to trade it away and then it blooms and I can't bear it. Fragrant flowers that are a bit old and frayed in the photos.

    Grown medium light, warm and moist year around.

    It is lovely, but I can see being unwilling to devote the space.
