Wow what a beauty! And I love the smell of Thin Mint cookies! I'll have to keep an eye out for one of these sometime!

Hi George

That flower is worth waiting for. I too have an Occulata and it didn't flower last year but it will be worth waiting for next time. One Stanhopea flower is better than none at all. Yours looks great

Thats a great looking bloom! Nothing like waiting a few years to really get the juices flowing, huh? Good work!
