Those are great, Mauro. Is this one of the deciduous species of calanthe, or does it keep its leaves throughout the year? Any fragrance to the flowers?

It is deciduous, Steve. And unfortunately, not fragrant (nothing is perfect)

It's beautiful Mauro! It appears that the blooms open in succession. How long do the blooms continue to open on this one?

thanks for your post!

The plant can be in bloom for 25-30 days, David.
