It finally overgrew the bathroom and it took like 4 people to get it out of the house and a forklift to get it onto the truck.
It wouldn't have been in bloom when you were there but I think there are some videos and pics online if you're interested.

I read about that shortly after they acquired it. I think I saw it in the Chinese garden a few months ago (that or some other humongous cymbidium), but unfortunately it wasn't blooming then either. If I do ever catch it I'll be sure to post photos here!
