I like! But its temperature needs are too cool for my conditions. I really appreciate the culture info you provide in your posts, Yves!

Love the flowers, the color combination is interesting and particularly pleasing. I hate to be a nitpicker but I would like to note that in the spelling of the genus Chysis there is only a single s between the y and the i.
