Gongora galeatea var luteo-alba
The genus Gongora (Gga) contains 52 species from Mexico to Bolivia and Brazil at low altitudes. These plants have mostly pendant flowers. Water and fertilize regularly.
Gongora galeatea grows in Mexico in mountain rain and cloud forests. It is fragrant, needs bright light and is hot growing. Likes some dryness in winter.
Got this from the San Francisco Orchid Society raffle table. Immediately mounted and it lost its leaves and looked like it was not going to restart growth.
