    Default Eriopsis biloba

    It took me over five years to bloom this seedling. The flower is about 1.3" wide

    Bill, it will grow better under I/W condition, shaded(edit: I meant less than Cattleya light, ~1800-2000FC) and moist.

    Thanks!

    Bruce, it is a first time bloomer.

    lanhua, my plant is about 14" tall, including the 2" tall pbulb. I expect it will slowly get bigger.
