Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plants: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Requires a cool, dry winter rest after new growth matures in the fall to initiate blooms in the spring.
 
Comments: Pod parent plant: This is a large basketball-sized specimen. It is stunning when in full bloom.

Pollen parent plant: This is a division that has been growing for several years in a 4 inch tree fern pot. The photo is of the first time it bloomed for me. Small plant.
