Context: my mum got some keikis of this orchid from a neighbour. She managed to grow them into a full plant, it even flowered (as per pic), but she has no idea on which species of orchid it is.
I am not sure if it’s a native species here (I’m in the subtropical parts of South America), but it seems to be growing just fine indoors in a Cfb climate.
Disregard the vase saying “phal azul” (blue phal), it used to belong to another orchid; it doesn’t seem to be a Phalaenopsis.
If necessary I can provide further pics, but note that it has lost the flowers already.
Any idea?
EDIT: thanks to @[email protected]’s comment, we could find it - it’s a Miltoniopsis. Likely from Colombia or Ecuador, not from my area.
It’s really beautiful, whatever it is
It is, indeed! I’m hoping to get better pics once it flowers again.
Finding the species was actually a big deal for this reason - raise it in conditions that trigger flowering better.
Best of luck. I tried a keeping a few of those over the years without much success. Hopefully you can do better.
I have some tips, if you want:
