Hello,
One of Sam's Saint Swithin's via Little frog. This looks like it could be what the label says. My first attempt at staking a multifloral... Advice for next time would be much appreciated. It looks like I will get four flowers on this first blooming. I am not excited about the lack of clear contrast in the dorsal and the muddy color of the pouch but I still like it.

Strong Roth influence on the staminode.
So, given the recent reputation and controversy about OrchidInn crosses, does this look like what the label says? I'll keep it either way. I'm not breeding these or growing for awards. It's just for me.
Cultivation: indoors under LED shop and grow lights: about 120 ppfd for 12hr per day. Potting in larva Rock and grown semi hydroponic. Once a week fertilization with miracle grow and a midweek flush with tap water (4 GH). No heating, the basement goes down to the low 50s in winter.
