RLC. Sunnystate’s Spring Dawn
At last I achieve a flowering of this plant! Last year, it flourished without a pod and the thrips destroyed the flowers, this year, the squirrels ate two pseudobulbs, there were two left, and this is the first one that opened, the other has no pod and takes some time.

SouthPark, Don't you remember that squirrels killed almost all the new pseudobulbs on my plants? They ate the new ones and bit the old ones. Then the plants brought out more and I had to put a lot of things to get them away from there.
