    Default Renanthera imshootiana

    I love this species. It has started blooming on exactly 5/10 the last three years, beautiful flower color and shape. Grows coolish-intermediate indoors here. Cool name too -- imshootiana...

    Great form and color. Looks like it could fly away at any moment. Lastly, to think it blooms on schedule three years in a row must mean this orchid has one heck of a internal clock. AL
