    Thrilling! can't wait to see the blooms! You are going to have a house full of blooming orchids. My phals are still going great guns, but most of the others are taking a break.

    Oh and according to RHS, caudatum x warscewiczianum is registered as Majestic Tresses. I'm guessing the petals will be long then
