Phragmipedium besseae flavum

[Anca86]

Hi everybody,

My Phragmipedium besseae flavum opened its first bloom this morning. It's not perfect but I am in love. Maybe the second flower will be better.
The flower it's smaller than I would have thought taking into account the big leaves of the orchid.

Update: The flower stretched beautifully. It mesures 7,5 cm across. The last picture is from today.
