Coelogyne virescens
I can't say that I'm a Coelogyne guy (OK, I assume my oversight ![Wink](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif) ! I've been paying little attention to this genus!). Anyway, these green and "black" species really help a lot in making up my mind for the genus. I was given this elegant flower last year and am very happy that I was able to get it into bloom!

Frederico, please, I didn't mean to say that Coelogynes are ladies' thing, I was just thanking Susanne's kindness. Sorry If the post sounded a little awkward for you, but it was not on purpose ![Smile](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/smile.gif) !

I like this one! I'm also a fan of the similar C. pandurata.

Another beauty, Mauro. Keep it up! You will be totally converted in no time at all. ![Laughing](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif) Interesting that the bloom spike on this one seems to be horizontal rather than pendant as usual. How is the fragrance?

Shirley, the flower stem curbs under the flowers' weight, assuming a relatively pendant position. The upright spike you see in the photo is still forming the buds, so it is not heavy enough to do that.
