Thanks Bob.
It looks like my Rhyn giganteas are only babies. The largest plant has
a leave 16cm long, or just over 6".

Mine, which I bought in Sept. of 2002, bloomed in Jan 2004. I don't think it
grew much after I bought it.
Leaf span is uneven, about 7" or 8" on one side and up to 10" on the other.

What is the size of a flowering size Rhynchostylis gigantea, e.g.
what's the leave span from tip to tip ?
I have some small plants for a couple of years now, and by the rate
they're growing it'll be a long time before they flower.

Martha: Hot summer is no problem; winter cold might be depending on
your
definition of cold-medium. We find they do best kept at 50F or warmer.
Several years ago, I had a small batch which all survived an accidental
night in the mid-30s, but they complained about for quite some time
afterward.
Good growing,

Hi everyone !
I am thinking about purchasing Rhynchostylis gigantea, but I am not
sure
if
it will thrive in my conditions (hot in the summer, cold-medium in
winter).
Is it true that it requiers hot and humid conditions ?
thanks
Martha
