It finally bloomed!!!! Cycnoches pentadactylon
I'll be honest I did not think my little cynoches I got I spike off eBay would survive well...me....somotimes with spikes my only luck is BAD LUCK. Ha! When I got this the spike was barely peeking out of its sheeth in the leaves. So with patience and extreme care I came home to tiny buds. Maybe the size of a half dollar with no scent.

Beautiful! I love the spots. Hopefully, your pentadactylon will come through fragrance-wise as the fragrance is really nice. Good luck!
