That's stunning a real mass of flowers. Is that just one spike?

Very pretty. I'm not familiar with this genera. Maybe I need to look into it.

Jcec1, it has two spikes, both coming from the newest pseudobulb.
Gngrhill, Clowesia Grace Dunn is a fairly common hybrid. Its parents are Clowesia rosea and warscwiczii. Check out the thread from Eddyezekiel for a comparison with rosea.
I have Clowesia rosea also (see pics below), but its flowers are more delicate--and, to me, more attractive. The fragrance of rosea is also nicer (again, just an opinion), but I lean more toward species in preference, so my view is a little biased towards rosea. That being said, I think you'd be happy with either (although rosea is nearly impossible to find).

Such a nice display. I'm not too familiar also but have seen some. Still trying to figure out all the crosses and such.
