Default Mormodes andicola 'Pollito' and Mormodes cartonii
Two great Mormodes that are currently blooming here... I love their fragrance (cartonii is more fruity and andicola is more like a mix of eucalypthus and orange)...

Oh wow, very well grown!!! And stunning! Those spikes look strange sticking straight up. They're so big and heavy looking that I would have thought them to be pendant!

Paula, if you are new to Catasetinae, I would not recommend to start with Mormodes yet... This is not the easiest genes in the group!

Those are fantastic, Ramon. Really quite pretty blooms, and your description of their fragrances adds to their appeal.
