B. barkeriola, one of very few I used to have in my collection. Flower on this sp. is quite large, ~3" if I remember it right.
Majority of Barkeria plants have a rambling growing habit but the flower color is brilliant... well worth growing!

Neat. Where'd you get this from?

I can't tell you all the sources of my plants, Linus_Cello. My friends may kill me for that....:D
Be honest, I don't remember...When I was really into the hobby, I got plants commercially but many(maybe 40%+) of my plants were from private collection.

Thanks for sharing. Again, they are not easy to grow.
I think they are not easy if you tend to overwater, keep too warm or with not enough ventilation, if you keep on the dry side, well ventilated in bright light and not too warm with good drop in temp at night I did not find these too difficult
By the way great species and very nice flowering!!
