Beallara Marfitch 'Unicorn Splendor'
Another paramount purchase, this plant is quite large with long spikes of quite large flowers. My plant quickly outgrew the 6" pot it was in so I dividied it last summer. Both divisions flowered. The largest bloomed back in October, now the second divison is in bloom. The flowers are nearly 4.5 " across.

Bllra are positively cool! Thanks. I love my Peggey Ruth Carpenter Bllra which tends to bloom to profusion.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Very nice Todd. I just returned mine to the grow room this week as the blooms were spent. Both my Peggy Ruth Carpenters have been blooming for months and will continue for quite some time yet on multiple spikes.

Tin, did I post this one before? If so, I forgot....I'm posting on too many forums I guess and can't keep track. 
If so, then this plant is indeed the same as the other.
