Donna Wise 'Amber' X 'Kathleen'
Picked one of those up from Krull-Smith (from Apopka) at the Venice orchid show this spring. Also picked up a 'Donna Wise X sib' which is similar.
It's in spike and this reminds me to check on it tonight.

I agree with Bruno – they are truly interesting flowers. The influence of one of the parent, namely, Catasetum tenebrosum, is quite noticeable.
Laura, congratulations with such beautiful flowering and thank you for showing!

This plant put out a third spike and the first one on it appeared to be blooming out female, though all the others on the spike are male, but if I had to guess I'd say that it is hermaphrodite!

Picture does not help to much, to me it looks a female flower but if you are able to see barely undeveloped antennae then is hermafrodite. |
