    Default Encyclia prismatocarpa in Bloom.

    This orchid has three spikes and 27 buds. Unfortunately the spikes have a mind of their own and I was scared of breaking them if I tried to straighten them to much. I am not the best photographer, nor is this the best camera for good orchid pictures. Anyway its nice to see this bloom though I admit I thought they were even showier flowers than this. The lip on this is pink and yellow. The petals are a medium green with maroon spots. The very center of the flowers are also maroon. Citrus scented, but not strongly. AL
