My first blooming Coelogyne! (graminifolia)
This one is so pretty!
The one thing I'm not crazy about is that the blooms are facing "backwards" on the mount...at both sides!  |

Congrats for the blooms they look great!  Love the yellow and brown in the lip. As for facing backwards, maybe they are just being shy?

It's gorgeous, Sue! Great job! Odd the blooms turned to face backward, but gorgeous nonetheless.

The only reason that makes any sense is that it was mounted backwards  |

Looks great, even if it is a bit 'confused!'

More than likely it was the way the Duncan had it hanging...There must have been more light behind it and they turned towards the light!
