Finally, I can say that I am able to grow and bloom two phragmipediums: andreettae and kovachii. All others I have tried have died a slow death. The kovachii just opened its flower yesterday and I decided to document the full opening as it progresses. The plant is about 18 inches tall and wide . The flower is currently 4.5 inches wide, but it was 3.5 inches wide yesterday. I wonder how big it will get? I can say that under my warm indoor conditions, it is easy to grow and in fact grows VERY rapidly. I bought this from Orchids Limited in 2007 or 2008, as I recall, as a seedling that was about 10 inches across. It makes 1-2 growths per year.
