Your Miltoniopsis is such a show stopper! 😍I love them, but can never keep them alive for more than a year. They would suffer so much in winter in my heated apartment. 😢I just bought another one, knowing it may not survive for long, but hey it’s still better than cut flowers. 😝

[@lequach75]

Hahah thanks! Well my miltoniopsis live in a warm apartment too. Actually , it’s so warm, especially in summer, we don’t even have to heat. What water are you using? Depending on where you live in France, our climates might be similar

@@lequach75 I live in a town that borders Geneva. So I might be slightly more to the south. That said, we are basically in a basin close to the Alps, so I think our climates may not be that different after all. Dark, rainy and gloomy winters, warm and dry summers. Spring and autumn are simply pleasant, but tend to be rainy as well.

I have a Phal**NOPE, sis! (hahaha) kinda similar to yours. Gift from my ex and it smells a bit like lily of the valley. GOD!!! That moment "did I just break it?" 😳. Nice peloric Cattleya haha. I looked it up on orchidroots and it has 25 species ancestors. DANG! haha

[@lequach75]
