Lovely thing. Well done.

Thanks! I am afraid that in 2 years from now I have to find a bigger pot, hoping for a specimen plant :)

In case you are interested I have the evolutinon of this catt over the years

Beautiful!

Looks like it's very happy being in S/H! Really grew a lot in a few short years. Very nice bloom, especially if it's fragrant! Do you happen to know the name of it?

That has grown into a specimen. If you decide to repot the backbulbs then you can have several plants. I love the colors and the shape of the flower.

Then, it is a first for me! :)

Camille, unfortunately it is a NOID but looks a lot like catt. intermedia (bifoliate, same colors,the shape..), possibly a hybrid of intermedia.

In the first image from the "evolution" picture it is the original flower. I took the picture exactly after bringing the plant in my home and somehow I new, or hope, it will bloom again (lucky me :D).

I was under the impression that species sized plants were much larger than that, from many many years of growing.
