    This is the rescue Den that I have posted pictures of before. It has been blooming on and off for a year, this latest flush of blooms is spectacular. The plant as tall as I am it has 6 spikes in bloom and one on the way. Enjoy.

    That is beautiful. And BIG!
    When you get keikis attach some to that tree and let it run wild lol.
    Rescues sometimes pay off, and this is one of those times.

    Every now and then I have a rescued plant that makes me think "why the heck did I even take a second glance at this thing..."

    Obviously the plant is very happy about being rescued by you. What a happy looking orchid.
