Nice photo. I'm not a fan of butterscotch but that's a wicked looking bloom. Love it.

Very cool! These guys really are green goblins--almost floating the spikes are so thin. Nice growing.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Surprisingly these photos were taken with my iphone....I was a little upset that I didn't have a good camera to catch some shots, but I think things didn't turn out too bad.

This plant is pretty easy to grow - I was surprised. Not much light, humid and warm and it does great!

Very cool flower, Calvin. Do you have the plant mounted or potted? How long is the bloom stalk?
