Default Coryanthes sp. (Bahia - Brazil)

This Crths was found in a rubber tree plantation in Bahia; the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) came from amazonia, and is artificially cultivated in Bahia. Anyway the Crths felt at home and grew up in the "strange" tree. It may be Crths speciosa or the newly described Crths bueraremensis, both natural of Bahia

I love these weird and gorgeous flowers. The plant looks pretty sizable too.
Nice one for sure, Frederico

Very strange, such a nice specimen though.

The more I see these stanhopeinae, the more I rethink my choice not to grow them. I think I may give them a shot after all.

That's a neat plant. Coryanthes have really weird flowers.
