    I just bought this at the National Capital Orchid Society show. 3 spikes for 30$!!! It has really big flowers and a nice subtle scent

    Thank you! I keep looking at it and going "Wow look at the size of that flower!" it seems crazy a species to have such awesome sized blooms. (at least for me, since my other species phals. are cornu curvi, celebensis, and pulchra)
