    Thanks folks. Its strange, I've had so many growers complain they can't grow one of these, to me without trying, is one of the easiest plants to grow I've ever had.

    Wow, Roy!!!! What a gorgeous specimen. Does it take particularly cool temps? I seem to have too warm an environment for miltonias, although I do okay with their hybrids.

    By the way, don't you think it's time to take this amazing plant to a judging session? Here, I'd bet it would get at least an AM for the plant and a CCM for you! Very inspiring!
