Sorry, Wendy. The tag is buried somewhere among all the pseudobulbs. I
won't know until I finally decide to break it up, but now that it's gotten
this big, I hate to do it.

Good work Ray, so it's about 11yrs old +- ?
Do you happen to have a varietal name as it looks just like my guy.
I was at our local show here in Orange County & they are still a hot
item & are
going for $150 for 4 or 5 pseudos.
Cheers Wendy

You may recall my previous statement that "I don't grow dens" and Dave
Gillingham's urging that I really should.
Some time after "the big freeze" that wiped out a 20-year collection, Rod
Venger gave me a D. speciosum seedling, barely an inch and a half tall, 2
growths. It has now progressed to a :fist bloom seedling", some ten
years of abuse later.
As a reference, it's in an 8" basket, the double-spiked growth on the
left is 27" tall, and the width, tip if spike to opposite leaves on right
is 52".
