    lovely and an interesting cross!

    i think it should be "grammatophyllum" not "gramy", correct?

    Since they can cross with cymbidiums, perhaps culture much like a cymbidium. Just a guess.

    Treat it like a warmth tolerant cymbidium or mini cyms.

    Angie is right. Those little droplets are plant sugars that are formed at the tips of any leaf or flower part. That is a very interesting plant! I wonder how much the ensifolium will shorten it. Gramytophyllum scriptum gets from 4' - 5' (1.5m) tall. The hybrid will need a good amount of sun and lots of water and fertilizer during the growing period. When fall comes, let it get a little drier and a bit of a cooler period until flower spikes begin. It looks like a very nice plant and puts out a heck of a show! Congrats on it.
