Beautiful! I really love the alba form of the butterflies and yours shows it off well. I can't wait till my Mendenhall blooms - it's my first Psychopsis as well. Was yours in bloom already or did you help initiate the spike! If you got it to bloom yourself, I'd love to hear what you did in your care! Congrats on a gorgeous flower.

No I bought it in bud. Sorry I can't help u with the care info, I'm still learning myself.

A division (cutting) or a keiki from a particular plant is a clone of that plant as it is identical genetically to the original plant. A mericlone, which is asexually produced through meristemming is a clone of the original plant. All clones should bear a cultivar name to differentiate it from the rest of plants bearing the same Grex.
