    Wow!! Look at that spike! Have you measured the overall height of the plant? I'm curious to know how big it truly is... Nice growing Connie

    That is a wonderful, healthy encyclia, Connie. I, too am wondering "how" tall it is; and if it is fragrant? Thanks, Betty :-)

    The spike is exactly 3 ft tall. With the basket i'd add maybe another six inches.
