    Default Mtps Gorey

    I showed this in my basket of orchids post earlier today, but when I came across the pic of the plant ( whic I forgot I had taken) I thought it worth a post on its own.
    Grown in S/H since I bought it a year ago, coming on quite nicely, although better grown it shouild do four spikes per bulb not just two. The one thing to remember , if anyone is inspired to try Milts , is that the flowers won't cut - or at least they will, but won't keep in water, unlike many other orchids.
