Default HUGE Psychopsis papilio!

At the show yesterday there was a HUGE Psychopsis entered and exhibited by John Pyfer of Little Brook Orchids. Check it out, it was just massive! large enough the judges came out of the judging room to judge it without moving it. It was awarded a CCE ith 93 points! Its been blooming for 12 years. it now has 5'9" tall spikes!
