I'm not sure what the sheath around the flower stocks are called, but I love the veining on them. Great pic! Thanks for sharing
 
5 flowers and awesome stance and color! Very nice. I'm waiting on mine to bloom. It's pushing out a new growth that started about 6 months ago and is now NBS. I'd be happy if it was half as nice as yours!
 
That is a cracking clone. The petals seem wide and are held beautifully and flat. The dorsal doesn't twist either. They don't get much better.

From what you have said before, you provide little heating and the temperature goes down to about 4oC. So you are basically growing these multi-florals as cool growing orchids. This amazes me. I'm wondering why I'm spending so much on heating mine to 15oC for inferior results.
 
This is still a reasonably young plant, but it is showing signs of becoming large. At present it has two mature growths, the first of which broke its flower spike (me fiddling too much), this second growth measures 65cm across.

Yours still has a long way to go. The individual leaves on mine are 65cm. Lucky for you yours is such a great clone. An average Bel Royal takes up too much space to be worth while.
