    Default Laelia Nemesis

    This is a cross between Schomburgkia (now known as laelia) Superbiens x Laelia Anceps. I really love this cross, and the plant grows like a weed! This is the first spike to open up, and we have 4 more spikes left to open. The longest spike being about 5 feet! In one of the pictures I had Kim stand next to the spike for a size reference. Enjoy
