Brassavola acaulis
10cm long flower, fragrant at night.
The pendent growths are two feet long and the spike comes from the rhizome.

Hey Tom...it's fantastic! 
I never knew these guys had the porple spots on the sepals and petals before. Are they just on the outer surface? In any case, I like the whole thing!
Great photo too!  |

Most of the spots are on the outer surface.
Edited: I took a close look of the flower today when I moved it out to the yard, and all of the spots are on the outter surface. Sorry for the incorrect info.

Nice! I'd love to add it to my collection, but it seems impossible to find it available here. Too bad!

That's really nice. The spots set it off really well.  |
