    So dissapointed!!! The flowers on the Laelia opened too far into the sheath, and I only got a hint of what it might have looked like! It had three flowers, that pretty much faded right away. Does anyone have an idea, of what went wrong? Sure appreciate an answer for the next flowering [if it does!] BTW, The flowers smelled heavenly!!

    did you do anything different, like change position, more light more shade, feed it?

    The only thing I did different, is bring it to the upstairs gro lights. It is also a bit warmer in this room...hhmmmmm, would that have maybe shortened the flower life? Thanks for the reply orchidboy!!
