BigBill said:It is a very pretty plant within the Catasetum Alliance.
Briefly they like it warm, 65-85 degrees, lots of water from Spring until early Fall when they drop their leaves and go dormant. Then when dormant, they need to go somewhat dry. They like fertilizer and I use a slow release fertilizer called Dynamite 20-20-20 twice per growing season.
They need a few hours of direct sun per day when actively growing, otherwise bright.
BigBill said:I have had some of these orchids bloom up to 9 times a season!
This particular one, three or four times per season. From 5-12 flowers per spike.
