Sobralia callosa L.O. Williams 1946
This is the first blooming in my garden of this orchid. The color is impressively bright and eyecatching. This orchid bloomed at the same time as Dendrobium crumenatum, I wonder if they are using the same environmental cues. A few days ago there was a tremendous thunderstorm of such violence that the local temperature went down a few degrees in a short time, surely prompted the Dendrobium to bloom, perhaps the Sobralia too. I will be watching to see if this happens again.
