Thanks! Mormodes flowers are weird! Rather than being symmetrical, the column is twisted to one side. So the appearance from opposite sides is quite different.

Actually, it's recovering from a setback. There are 2 old p-bulbs that are somewhat shriveled, there were a couple that got clipped because the rotted last year, Was potted a couple of years ago. the new one that produced all the flowers is fat and happy, though, extending over one side of the pot and unbalancing it. In fact, it fell over onto the floor when I was trying to set it up for a picture... and the spikes didn't lose a single flower. Made a mess but clearly was well rooted, stayed in the pot. Going to get repotted this winter, for sure.
