Sounds like you have a nice clone of bisquamata (capensis). My clone is
a bit, well, bland. Not well coloured. Report back when your
``pentadactyla'' flowers. It should look much like the bisquamata, but
with 4 deep notches (making the five fingers) instead of the two smaller
notches on the bisquamata (making the lower lip only three lobed).
He told me something that irritated the $%&*@ out of me. He said the
clump of U. resupinata I sent him is sending up scapes. I'VE BEEN
GROWING THIS DAMN PLANT FOR A $%@# 2 YEARS AND HE HAS IT FOR 2 MONTHS
AND IT FLOWERS! I'VE BEEN GIVING THE DAMNED PLANTS EVERY SPECIAL
TREATMENT I CAN THINK OF AND HIS FLOWERS IN TWO MONTHS!
