catasetum fimbriatum

[catasetum-ian]

another fimbriatum clone of mine, 12 of them in this spike

the third pic is the closeup on the lip, the callus at the center with the two lateral fringe borders do resembles the shape of a bird spreading its wings

the last pic is the appearance of the flower at full bloom, the two lateral sepals will arch backward almost/touching the pedicles. (can compare with pic 2 when the flower started to bloom; the lateral sepals are on lateral side)

Gorgeous, thanks for posting.
I was given a pbulb which now has three small growths. I hope when it blooms it will be half as nice as yours.

wow, 3 small growths from a pbulbs, that is fantastic. the max i had is 2 only.
with the three new growths, when it flowers it will not be half as nice as mine but it will be THREE times nicer than mine.

I hope you're right, this is my first venture with Catasetum so my fingers are crossed!

How beautiful!! But I think I prefer it with the lateral sepals sticking out to the side, too bad they don't stay that way.
