It is pretty bright in summer I suppose - NC mountains at around 3500'. I think it has seen pretty similar light to an Onc wildcat that bloomed both years (they both get darker in the winter). I have seen dark green noted for leaves in this species.

Ron,

Do you let yours dry out a bit more around now? I saw that they experience this before the spring rainy season mentioned in the orchid species culture article. Does yours bloom in the spring/summer only?
