Anacheilium chacaoense
Default Prosthechea chacaoensis

First bloom for me on this one. Spike took about 4 months to develop. The flower is a cream color, a little translucent, and crystalline. Looks like some expensive garment up close. Hard to capture in the photo...

Flower shape is much nicer than I thought it would be! With all the marine nicknames these "cockleshell" orchids have (octopi, squid), I wasn't expecting it to be so elegant. Quite nice to see in person.

These are supposed to have a strong fragrance, but I have not detected anything yet...
