My Laelia superbiens is finally sending up a flower spike. Now I just need to protect it from the late summer grasshoppers that are beginning to show some interest in my orchid-growing area. Since this is the plant's first spike, I'm anxiously anticipating what the blooms will look like.
It's a big plant, and, unfortunately, a bit of a climber. The spike is currently almost a meter tall.
