Paphgirl June 19th, 2005, 07:06 AM Fabulous, Lien! Good growing and great photos. I have never delved into Disas, but I do love this species for it's color and shape....can anyone guess what it reminds me of?
How large is the flower, if you don't mind me asking?
TADD June 19th, 2005, 07:16 AM Nice looking flowes Lien! Good Growing! Uummm let me guess Heather.. a Catt? :)
lienluu June 19th, 2005, 07:16 AM How large is the flower, if you don't mind me asking?
They're about 10cm across.
Paphgirl June 19th, 2005, 07:27 AM Thanks Lien!
Nope, Tadd, not a catt, nor even a cat!
Paphraguy June 19th, 2005, 08:18 AM I love this species and the beautiful flowers always reminds me of Phrag besseae.
Paphgirl June 19th, 2005, 08:25 AM Yep! that's what it reminds me of too! Except upside down! :lol:

Gideon June 19th, 2005, 02:58 PM I love Disas, I plan to get some in September, when I go to Cape Town.
RickL June 19th, 2005, 08:09 PM Great growing Lienluu.

Jon in SW Ohio June 19th, 2005, 08:34 PM Excellent!!!
I've threatened to try growing these...but no one ever has them for sale at shows. I could order one I suppose...but I think I will have to wait and see what's at our auction at the end of the month.
Thanks for sharing, I love these guys!

Thanks!
Excellent pictures! The flowers are gorgeous!
TADD June 19th, 2005, 11:01 PM Lien out of curiosity, How easy/hard are these to grow? Light requirements? How about humidity and size? Are they fragrant?
Park Bear June 20th, 2005, 09:15 AM very nice :clap2:

TADD,
I don't find that that difficult to grow, even though so many people claim they are. I grow them with my Phrags which are under a 400 watt HID (i think). Humidity is around 60-70% and most are in 4 inch pots. I have a few in 6 inch pots. I don't think they're fragrant but i have to admit, i rarely smell any of my flowers!
TADD June 20th, 2005, 03:46 PM Thanks, the greenhouse where I volunteer doesn't have any of these, and he has a wide spectrum of plants. I was wondering! I might have to have him get some so I can work with them. Thanks again!
nyorchids June 20th, 2005, 03:48 PM good growing lien!! :clap:
