It's only on the windowsill for the picture
I got it last fall as a clump of bare pseudobulbs, and as soon as its new shoot had roots about an inch long I potted it and started watering it very heavily. The flowers are much smaller than I expected! From the pics I had seen, they looked like they'd be the same size as cooperi, in person they are barely half that size. I should also mention that in the pics I've seen, the spike gets MUCH longer...maybe that is why the flowers looked bigger.

Even though they are small, still very beautilfu! Perhaps a cross of Cyc. peruvianum and Cyc. lodigesii would influence flower size and keep some of the odd color and shaped labellum characterisitcs... maybe those hybrids are alreay out?

You'll have to bring this into a meeting so I can see it in person...I should be able to make the November meeting.
