E. strictum???

Shelburne Falls, MA(Zone 5a)

I bought this plant in VT with no label. It is in a room with temps of 55 degrees F, so I was surprised to see buds. This is a very blurry pic I just took with a flash, but I wondered if it's strictum.

Should I bring it into a warm room?

Anyone out there?
I brought this guy into the warm room and it was yellow in its peak. So now I'm wondering if it's Disocactus macranthus.

Very nice Boonjum. I don't know much about Orchid Cacti even though I have a couple .... but that is very pretty. Is the flower fragrant?

I just noticed you first posted this on Jan 20th and no one has responded! That really surprises me. Maybe you should post it on the epiforum site and see if someone there can ID it for you?

Ah good idea, Lin. I will do that!

I don't know what it is, but I know that it isn't E. strictum. It is probably the Disocactus that you mentioned. You may want to post it on the EpiForum as Lin suggested or search some web sites for one that looks similar: http://www.ecology.org/orchids/index5.html#disocactus
