B. nodosa x Lc. Blue Boy 'Gainsborough'

       
        Here is another plant that I acquired last year from a society member's collection. I have it potted in a clay pot with my special media (if you don't know what it consists of, please scroll down and read the blog). The nodosa looks very dominant in this flower and the coerulea color from the Blue Boy has came out more purple in color. The flower form looks fairly nice in my opinion. It is flat with a somewhat symmetrical form. I keep this in between my Cattleyas and my Phalaenopsis plants. If you grow this like B. nodosa you should be fine. As for watering, I water this every 3 days on my automated system.
