There are things that can be done to minimize the hooding (higher temps, lower light, less blue in the spectrum). I'd say sandy & gigantifolium are the culprits, gardineri (*cough* wilhelminae) usually holds its dorsal pretty high.

Yes, giga of them all. I heard about manipulating temps but this guy is what it is no matter what. This actually opened during summer and my greenhouse was 90's everyday. No cooling but I lowered my light down to 500 FC.

But I had six buds on that first bloom. A good grower.

Ah, then do what I do: Kill it in front of the other plants to remind them of what can happen.

Lovely flowers with long twisted petals and I wouldn't care about the slightly hooded dorsal but on the other hand I think it's better to see the photo directly in the thread than over a link. I hope you agree.
 
Yes. I agree. Thanks for doing that. Need to try it myself. I got pampered with photobucket.
