Catasetum growing on palm
This plant flowered for the first time last year.
It is growing on the stem of a thorny palm and gets little direct sun in the afternoon.
Now it looks like it has big plans, and I would like to have more information on this species.
Is it true that it produces separate male and female flowers?
It looks very happy and you can see a lot of exposed roots growing upwards and I wonder if I should give fertilizer.
I added a photo of last year's bloom but it is a bit too "artistic" and doesn't show the flower in detail.
However, I hope that the species can be identified.
Here the popular name is forest orchid which is clearly very vague.
