    This ascocenda bloomed three times last year. It had around 9 flowers each time. This time it bloomed with 15 flowers on one spike, although you can't tell from the photo. I had to tie the spike up so it wouldn't break.

    Oh my! That is gorgeous. Congratulations on 15 flowers on one spike. That is impressive. The one I have seen was much darker purple. But I like yours better.

    These come in many shades from a light pink all the way to a dark purple color. I call this raspberry and it's one of the more common colors for this cross.

    I've seen you post this one before. It is impressive. I too like this color form. It is an excellent display, Jeff.
