    Tom you certainly display some wonderful orchids. I am amazed at both the quantity and quality of the plants . This orchid is a particular show stopper.

    It's a lovely display , and an orchid not known to me ; I have a couple of Holcoglossums, in my collection for a year or two, but no flowers yet. I have been looking up Delaware - I see you are ten degrees further south than where I live, so you get a brighter/warmer climate, I guess ; do you grow your plant in a lot of sun ? These terete plants all presumably have that leaf shape to guard against water loss, so therefore presumably not particularly humid ?
    I'm looking for clues as to what I might do to improve my culture here !
    Thanks - as they say - in anticipation.
