This is the first blooming for this plant from what I can see. It has two large growths and the longest leaves span almost 28 inches

Yep these guys get real big. Looks like mine has a way to go yet - I thought they bloomed at 18 inches, maybe some do? Maybe mine will? LOL!
Still abit of a baby yet I guess at 12in.

Enjoy your blooms!

Very pretty and I really love the Maxillaria tenuifola. I have one that only gave me one flower because it's very small, but it smells so great anyway.

Thanks for the info on flowering size for this one Elena, apparently mine has a ways to go too.

Sooo, if I sit it outside maybe it will rain here, it's such a drought this year.
