Wilsonara Calico Gem in bloom again.

Three flowers opened up couple of days ago.
I really wish the lip stayed yellow, but it is yellow as the lip opens, then it gets bleached out. well, well, can't be perfect.

I have a small one that is doing the same thing. Top of the flower spike has browned and lower part produced a side shoot with buds. I will post a picture later.

Oh, that's good to know! so I guess this is a normal thing for these plants rather than a exception.
