    Not that I couldn't look it up, but what different genus go into Hwra?

    She's a beaut, Gin!

    I always love those deep, deep reds! Can you post a close-up of the flower?

    Thanks,
    Julie

    Hi , Pretty much like an Oncid. maybe a little less light , It has had both more and less , with less the flowers are a deeper red , It does not like wet feet , This one is in the straight pellets in a clay pot , set in the basket . It grows ok mounted too. I have a close up of the flowers on the other machine will post them later . Hurry Back

    Very nice! I can't wait to see my seedling sized one get big enough to bloom. How big were your Hwra's when they first bloomed for you?

    My lava burst bloomed when it was still tiny. I can't wait until mine is big enough to put on a show like yours, Gin.
