Encyclia bractescens in bloom

[WhiteRabbit]

A small species from Central America and Mexico

I've had this one a couple of years - it's been an easy going plant This past year, it has been growing in a west facing window that gets some direct sun from mid to late afternoon. Watered when the sphag on the mount is dry. I have not detected any fragrance, tho I have read that the species is fragrant ...

There is some pink on the lip, which I had difficulty capturing in the photos The best photos I got have the back drop of new wood, which is about the same color as the flowers - but the light there made for the best pix. Anyway - I hope you can see them

Thanks for looking
