Catasetum saccatum Male
Default Catasetum saccatum

This species is quite widely spread in South America and is found grown in hot, moist lowland areas, often on dead trees in full sunlight.

No Kim, you need at least three! One saccatum, plus two close relatives – incurvum and osculatum, so altogether three!

Totally agree... and if you still have some space I would add schmidtianum to that combo!

Very nice one Gena! This species (and its close relatives) have been on my list for some time now. Just wish I could find them here in Hawaii!
