I do like the Broughtonia hybrids - but they don't see to appear this side of the Atlantic very often.
I went to Jamaica once on a cruise, and did that rafting down the Rio something or other which all the tourists do there ( why not - I was a tourist, after all ! ) and lay back and looked at those giant trees which extend across the river 50 feet above my head, and looked longingly at the Broughtonias growing up there, with their long spikes waving gracefully in the breeze - I would have loved to have got closer ... I did see some which had been collected and then nailed to trees at hotels etc, which were in good view, but not quite the same as the natural ones.
