More than 40 years ago a dear friend gave me this orchid for my birthday. It arrived in a bucket and was then transferred to a nice pot and lived inside for several years until it looked really sad and stopped flowering. So it was relegated to a large pot outside for its 'retirement'. From then it has flowered when it feels like it, usually in September, some years not at all. This year it outdid itself and bloomed exactly on my birthday last month !
