The cross is between Phrag Grande and Phrag. longifolium. So that makes it 25% caudatum and 75% longifolium. I don't think I have seen this cross posted on this forum yet.

Interestingly I had this plant for a number of years, it just would not grow big enough. Then suddenly last year it sent out a new growth with huge broad leaves, which grew fast enough to bloom this year. So there is hope for those runts in collections!

I recently sold one of these as I acquired a larger plant in June which had only flowered on one growth out of 8. There are at least 2 maturing growths which could flower at any time, but the plant had a huge strong root system which I noticed when I potted it on. The couple of new growths have really shot up since I purchased it probably due to the change in feed and conditions when seems to suit it. I think they can be temperamental, but established plants just seem to get on with it. Lets hoping for a show like yours! How many flowers would you expect to be open on a spike?

It's beautiful! How big is the plant Fren?

I got one labeled as such a few years ago but bloomed out to be a mislabelled plant! :sob: Your picture makes me want to get one :)

It's a big plant because it is as big as any larger longifolium hybrid. It is like a larger Phrag. Grande (I know there are Grande with more compact foliage too). Each leaf is more than a foot long and three inches wide.
But big plants seem to mean either bigger blooms or higher bloom count in my experience, so I suppose that is ok.
 
I like that flower a lot. The dorsal sepal is nice, not twisted like many others of it kind.
