Neofinetia falcata is also known as the Japanese Wind Orchid. I've had two plants for about 12 years (wow, has it been that long?). They have been performing somewhat lackadaisically under lights, growing well, but blooming rarely to occasionally. This plant has bloomed perhaps 3-4 times in those 12 years. Recently I moved the Orchidarium to a brighter window - it cuts the view, but sacrifices have to be made. Both plants have burst into bloom, the most prolific ever. I'm loving the graceful flowers, and the vanilla creamsicle fragrance transports me into childish reverie.
