Wow, that's gorgeous! I'm puzzled by the structure of the flower, though. It seems to violate the "rule" of 3 sepals, two petals and a lip. Granted, there is no such thing as a hard and fast rule...

The plant I have that is similar to yours blooms reliably 2-3 times per year, but it has never done anything like what you showed in your picture. I'm going to try more light. Thanks for the tips!

I've had a lot of fun reading through this thread. Given that the project started in late May, would it be considered bad form to join at this point? I just so happened to have bought my first...
