    Default Catasetum Penang (Catasetum pileatum 'Green Gold' x Catasetum Susan Fuchs)

    first bloom from the division, the original bulb was damaged when the mother plant fell on the floor. i separated the bulb and luckily it made it and here it is with the very first spike.
    smell like cinnamon mixed with a little bit of mint, flower is 6.2cm across.
