Sure not something rare in cultivation but still very intresting.
The faint fragrace, early morning, makes these flowers more beautiful.

I love this one, thanks for sharing your pics.

Mine struggled after I rotted the roots, but is now growing well in S/H. Hoping I will get it to rebloom one of these days.

Default love this plant

This is my all time favorite plant. Everytime I get one I kill it off. How doyou water? What is it planted in? I just got a division from my friend and planted in orchid mix. Let me know the tricks. Thanks.

Here are some photo's from the 2 plant's that I have.
The first one has all ready flowered and the second has start to make 4 flowers stems.

Got ants has right,I always search on the web to see how the plant looks,how the flower stem arise and from where ,many of the pictures shows only the flowers and nothing else.

beezermommy ,I keep them outside,only some very cold winter days I take them inside the house.
For the winter I water them once per week ,from spring time and especialy when they start to grow flower stems every 2 days.Plants received bright indirect light.They are into plastic pots with bark.
That's all for my clima.I can't recommend the same for all as everyone has differend clime and cultivation methods,
just that works well for me.
