Default P. Baldan's Kaleidoscope 'Golden Treasure'

Bruce,
Baldan's are a dime a dozen and a popular orchid. I have one of that
cultivar 'Golden Treasure' with blooms opening again now during summer
on a fresh spike (not a secondary spike). Although I've had it a long
time, if I recall, it is one purchased as a box store 'rescue'. I do
not pick up stray cats, but often take pity on orchids. lol. It is a
frequent bloomer and obviously it can send a spike without 'cool
induction'. This may be coincidence but it may be a quality that
contributes to it blooming more often.
I'll be watching for comments from others.

Just curious how many other posters and lurkers here have this one. I have
had mine for 2 years, and it has been in continous bud the entire time. The
longest it has gone is 4 days without open blooms, and it and has always had
at least two spikes blooming.
