    Beautiful! I love Psychopsis.

    How much light do you give Psychopsis, closer to catt, or Phal? I was given one papilio earlier and told to give bright light, but from what I have read so far, it might only need phal level light.

    My Psychopsis gets closer to Cattleya light and continuously blooms. Afer all remember it was once categorized as an oncidium

    I keep mine between Cat and Phal light. Lower light levels give the plant longer leaves.
