Tara, I picked up a good size plant last Summer/ in 2013 at the Silva Orchid Fest/the vendor was Little Brook Orchids. And this thing started to bloom somewhere in Winter like crazy with lots and lots of spikes and although it is now slowing down, I still see the occasional long spike.
This Orchid is substantial, but it is happy in dappled shade. It is now outside over the Summer and gets watered daily.

Here is the plant last February in the greenhouse, I had it for a couple of days in bright light, but moved it soon after back down into more shade.

As I said, the scent is awesome, I love it.
