Cyc Chlorochilon x Jumbo Mickey 'SVO'
Wanted to share this amazing plant. I received this from SVO as a dormant 2 bulb division in fall.
The bulb is a massive 16" and still growing. 23 waxy bright yellow flowers on two spikes. The fragrance is wonderful, dead ringer for banana Laffy Taffy.

Absolutely spectacular! What a floriferous "beast". It definitely likes conditions at your house!

Current favorite catasetinae and potentially my favorite fragrance yet.

The gift that keeps on giving, two more big spikes.
This is 75% Chlorochilon, 25% cycnoches warscewiczii. Love the hybrid vigor

Wow, too cool!

Also, I should mention there is some Mormodes in this plant. It's definitely not just Cycnoches.
