Laelia undulata (former Schomburgkia)
Impossible to capture the entire plant with the long roots and very long inflorescences ( the set is easily longer than 7 feet!). The plant produces a ball of flowers atop the long inflorescence that shifts the leading pseudo bulb to the side under its weight!
These wavy flowers (S. crispa, undulata ect) are still refferred to as Schomburgia, but they were transferred to Laelia more than 60 years ago (1941).
