Default Coelogyne virescens Rolfe

I am not much a Coelogyne guy, but I have to admit that this one and Coelogyne pandurata make me drool at the flowers!

There's just something amazing about that green and black combination, isn't there. Beautiful plant - how large is this one?

I totally agree, Calvin, these two colors make them amazing !
The flowers are 2-2.1" across and the plant one foot in height.

Good work with that one Mauro! I just got into Coelogyne and this one just might have to go on my list.

It is a pretty green coelogyne.
Compared with Coel. pandurata, another green coel. species, this plant is smaller and hence does not occupy too much room.
I have had one plant of this species for several years, but am not able to bloom it.

Mauro, my plant grows well here but it seems to grow and forgets to bloom.
Few people here grows this one so I don't know the exact reason that it is not able to bloom.
