Phrag Cape Sunset

[orchid527]

This is not the greatest flower, but the plant grows like a weed and I've grown fond of it. The flower has a spread of about 4 inches. This is the second year it's bloomed and this year it has some branching.

The plant has 3 growths with a leaf span of about 30 inches and it is growing in a 5 inch pot with 1:1 small Orchiata/Promix. I water/fertilize the plant about every time I look at it with dilute MS in RO. It appears to be very resistant to pathogens and the leaves are without the spots I see on some of my other phrags.

I think I may keep this for a few years to see what happens.

I rather like it...

And I need to have you come up here and clean my growing area, you have the cleanest floor I've ever seen!

Seriously! This whole greenhouse looks staged

Greenhouse? The humidity today dropped to 33%. Desiccatorium might be more accurate.
