| Give schomburgkias plenty of heat and a light place near the glass, which should be slightly shaded during the hot summer months. Provide freely of water in the growing season. Rest them in a temperature of 55°. S. tibicinis and S. Lyonsii are to be classed amongst the showy easily grown orchids resembling laelias. | | Give schomburgkias plenty of heat and a light place near the glass, which should be slightly shaded during the hot summer months.
