Lovely!

Wow that's a big bloom.

I really love the bloom. Too bad I grow indoors during the winter. :(

Sweet. (Well, maybe not the smell, tho)

Fabulous! Other than the "stink" part ... ;)

The spike on this one is 18 inches., just fabulous!

Nice bloom!!!! Im planing on getting an echinolabium soon I just love this species!!!

Have a second spike coming, but it looks like another bud behind this one, on the same spike, is that possible?

Yes, Im pretty sure each spike has more than one flower but only one opens at a time even when the plant has multiple spikes or so ive read...
