Holcoglossum kimballianum

Had an opportunity to take a couple of better pics...I received this in trade maybe 1.5 years ago and this is the first blooming for me. Was once classified as a Vanda

Very nice, I like the contrast between those beautiful elegant blooms and the odd, "gangling" looking plant they belong to.

Beautiful flowers. I tried one of those plants and they died a miserable death in my greenhouse.

By the way, I do not want to be the one to point this out, but that first flower has some rather rude manners and is displaying an obscene gesture at the tip of its dorsal sepal

Or perhaps its telling me "Take that! John. You killed my brother!"

Those are absolutely stunning! If I thought I could keep that alive, it would be on my list in heartbeat! Nice job!

Like vanda terete but again so cool.

Interesting bloom, Ron!

Cheers,
BD

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .
