catasetum Shumkeii Male
Default catasetum Shumkeii

this is a peruvian plant that flew with me a year and a half ago back to mexico. it also is trowing another spike that is in infant stages. the PBulb that is blooming is also larger than the other 4 in the back, (must be doing something good ! )

the flower count will imho be good, the first flowers are still opening. will post pics as soon as more flowers open.

cheers!

Antonio.

Absolutely great spike of Catasetum schunkei. Please come back with a photo in a few days when the majority of flowers has opened.

That looks spectacular. I'd also like to see a photo when even more of it opens up.
