Yes, the long petal phrags; caudatum, humboldti, willissii and their hybrids prefer much higher temps than kovachii. Most of the long petal species live in the Amazon basin while kovachii live high up in the Andes on the pacific coast.

I have all my Kovachii hybrids in one area of my greenhouse where I have an A/c unit to keep them cooler. They real do hate the heat!

Most Phrags. especially those that have some kovachii in the lineage hate heat. I have hundreds of Phrags and they are a challage in our Texas heat!

Amazing!😍😍😍😍😍😍

Thank you Kate, Yes, as Kate said I use both natural lite and strobes. I think that true, rich, sunlight really brings out all of the chromatophores in the flower. When I use strobes, they are always remote and diffused. Also reflector discs can really help, either with natural sunlight or...

Gorgeous!

Glorious!

I have 2 different Bouley Bay Plants. The older/larger has no clonal name. The younger/smaller is Cherry Run. My older plant bloomed back in January. My younger just open it's bloomed this week. Their flowers are about the same size, about 5 inches vertical from the tip of the dorsal sepal to...

I have all of my phrags in trays with one inch of water. I took standard solid trays and melted howls in the side walls at 1 inch. Here are a few images of my Calurum. George
