Brassavola subulifolia
One day I think I might have a shot at getting this plant to grow into a good-sized specimen. This year it's produced six spikes (two of which are just starting to elongate from the two newest growths and are not visible in the pictures); there are twenty-two flowers on the four spikes that are currently blooming. A very nice scent is produced in the evening. The plant itself is something of a beast in comparison to its little cousin, Brassavola nodosa. The longest leaf on this one is just under sixteen inches, and the plant's around thirty inches wide at its widest point (my photo of the plant doesn't look all that artistic since I decided to use the garage floor as a backdrop). Very easy to grow and bloom.
