I bought it 2 years ago with 5-6 PB. now over 60 so it grows quite fast but hadn't bloomed before. In fact it seems to need really cool nights to bloom. (10-12°C)

Laelia pumila is one of my favorite mini catt. I am lucky to have one that is blooming with great color and without the "back reflexed" of the dorsal sepal. I will post picture soon.

It's wonderful! I've killed two of these so I've given up on any hopes of growing it.
