Ctsm. denticulatum

[gixrj18]

macrocarpum should be any day now, and intergerrimum has about a 3" spike....so two weeks, or so. You will definitely see pics, I'm trying to shade half of it so I can see both sexes of flowers. It was going to be my calendar pic until the rain dripping off my butterfly orchid knocked two of the buds off. Hopefully, intergerrimum will bloom before August 24.

I'm (seriously, honestly) afraid to look, but Clown Alley Orchids (in breathtaking Pasadena, TX) has quite a few Catasetinae available. I've always been really happy with his plants, though I do get them in person at shows, so get to massage and fondle all of them before actually committing to a relationship...and since the climate there is pretty similar to here (buoyantly refreshing heat and humidity), the plants are already tough and feisty.
