Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F)
Comments: A lovely species formerly of both Odontoglossum and Lemboglossum, Rhynchostele cordata is used quite often in intergeneric breeding. Dorsal sepal ochre-yellow, overlaid heavily with rust-red blotches, narrow with heavy midrib on reverse, reflexing back distally; lateral petals crisp white, overlaid sparsely with relatively large, rust-red spots, cupped forward basally, reflexed back apically; lateral sepals similar to dorsal, ochre overlaid with rust; labellum white with large, two-pronged callus basally, small cluster of rust blotches at apical tip. Substance firm, texture matte; form open, as typical for the species.
