    Default Sophronitis cernua

    Sophronitis cernua is warm growing and therefore probably the easiest Sophronitis to care for, at least for us who don't have a cold humid space. All the Sophronitis species are now considered Cattleyas. I will still label mine Sophronitis.

    Very Nice! Did you get this as a seedling or division?

    Thanks. The vendor didn't say but based on what I see, it is a division.

    The amount of bloom is impressive, good color too. I have one that is a seedling, it is growing good, but it has not bloomed yet.

    Thanks. My plant grew very slowly in the beginning, maybe because I kept it on the dryer side. Then I read that it really likes a lot of water. With respect to the blooms, more shoots harboring buds are being produced so I guess it will be blooming for some time. It needs a lot of light to bloom well.
