Bought this from SBOE last year. The pot fell, broke, and I was unable to repot it on time. It evidently forgave me for my lack of care.

Beautiful!! It's so wonderful how forgiving orchids can be of neglect. The overdue potting up didn't bother it at all!
And it's nice to see you on OB again Maria!

Beautiful. Very interesting flower...I saw Pheli's post and he got a darker lip and rounder petals with three blooms in a spike and hes got two spikes...I find your flowers more elegant and on the classic side...is it fragrant?
