Mormodes revoluta

[AvantGardner]

Also known as mormodes warscewiczii syn. revoluta. Although I disagree that this can be the same species as the one I just posted a few weeks ago. Both found in the same vicinity in Peru. I'm liking this one much more than the smaller variety. Ns is about 8 cm. Enjoy!

That is such an awesome looking bloom. I live the colour and the speckling.

Yes it is. 4 of 5 have now bloomed. The 5th is growing one heck of a p-bulb, should put on a good show.

Ironically out of the blue Mr Manrique kindly sent me this tissue culture composition today. Thought I'd share

Whoa! That's so random! Are these from your plants or from his plants? I'm surprised the Mormodes values are so low compared to the others.

These were from plants in the wild
