Laelia purpurata var. shusteriana specimen

[Pete]

yes yes yes-yes to all. it is very nice to have the great conditions we do for growing. however its not all gravy. we have an abundance of pests as well as fungal/bacterial things to constantly worry about that also all enjoy growing at expedited rates here in the tropics. the breeze is a saving grace.

yes bryan- 5 years 6 months out of flask. paphman. im converting all my cattleya types to either no media, or wine corks over the course of the past couple years. they grow unbelievably better that way. Rick-thats me with the plant.

I heard Francisco Miranda in Brazil grows all his Cattleya and Laelia without media like you do! My friend who is an AOS Judge told me he has never seem such healthy and amazing plants in his life! Your plant is amazing as well!
