    This plant was recently given to me by a former forum member. Grown warmish and moderately bright. I didn't measure the blooms but they are about 3/4 inch wide and the tree fern mount is about 12 inches tall.

    I photographed this in near-sunset natural light so the colors got a bit wacky. Hopefully my corrections got the colors about right.

    Very nice. Is it mounted on tree fern?

    Yes. It was given to me already mounted and it looks like it has been on this mount for several years. IOSPE calls it a terrestrial but it seems perfectly happy mounted.
