Ctsm. barbatum x Ctsm. denticulatum

[medge00]

This little friend produced a 3rd spike this season. Perhaps to make up for the lipless wonders on the last blooming? At any rate, here are pics of the current blooming, as of this morning 11/11/16. This year's bulb is quite a bit smaller than last year's, and I suspect the plant sent all its energy into flowers rather than making a fat bulb. I think it will be ok

Also interesting how similar this looks to Catasetum schunkei

I had the same thought! Not had them side by side, however.
