That is amazing.
The green and browns offer a wonderful contrast and make the flower really 'pop'.
But twenty years! That would try even my wife's patience.
Hard to tell but more pointed dorsal sepal leads me to think jackii, but I dont have much experience with these plans.
My seedlings are still another year or two from blooming size.
Either way, Should be a nice flower.
Well done
The slipper wall is so thin it appears almost transluscent.
I would think it is a short-lived bloom.
Can anyone confirm how long florescence lasts?
Thx.
Very nice.
You will have a forest and orchid enthusiasts breaking down your doors in no time (well, the orchids enthusiasts anyways).
May be a wee bit longer till the forest appears.
