Bifrenaria tyrianthina

This is not currently in bloom, but I figured since it was being used without my permission even after I sent an email requesting its removal, in an eBay auction by Larry's Orchids (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ht_2231wt_6950, I may as well share it here. it can also be seen on my page at:

I hate to tell you this, tenman, but I had a BIG problem with Larry's Orchids a few years ago. Ebay has a process which can work to get the photo taken down, but it takes a long time, and by the time you finish the process, the auction is ended.

People's lack of ethics is always amazing to me.

Tenman! I have one of those but how do you get to flower it?

I give it a completely dry rest for about 6 weeks in the winter. Usually works.

That's why its so familiar looking! Mine actually hasn't bloomed this year...for the first time in the 20+ years I have had it....maybe its just late this year.
