Ansellia africana

I got this from a friend in our orchid society and absolutely love it. It was exhibited in the Gulf Coast OS Show last weekend. I can't imagine it getting much bigger but I was told that it can. That's me in the 2nd pic for reference, I'm 6ft even making the plant ~5ft tall with the inflorescences!!! Sorry for the low quality photos, they were taken with my phone. I've been lazy about taking good photos recently.

I have a larger hand truck if you need. It has straps and is great for refrigerators and other appliances.

I've always loved their root whiskers! Just when you have seen it all in the orchid world a species comes along and shows something different. Beautiful plant and wonderful blooms!
