    Default Catasetum tenebrosum 2014

    almost two months since the last catasetum flowered in my garden.
    catasetum tenbrosum, easily identified by the contrasting brown and chartreuse labellum that is double callus.

    that is amazing. very cool colors, and strange, but i'd expect nothing less form something named tenebrosum.

    depends on location and weather perhaps, i notice those from the Brazillian continent started to flower about a month before mine. though seperated by thousands of kilometers, i notice certain species still tends to flower approximately the same time of the year.
