Bulbo maximum
Rather a hard one to get a good picture of, picked this up at our recent orchid show. No odor, I guess you would call them spikes (2), (leaves?) twenty or so tiny flowers opening along each underside. Love the Bulbos

Very neat! You might get better pictures of it, if you don't have it backlit. Because of the dark color, you want more light coming from the front.

How cool!
This reminds me of a Bulbo purpureorachis that I saw at the RHS London orchid show in March. So different from others I've ever seen.
