These plants can get huge with thousands of flowers. The Duckitts from Darling near Cape Town did some hybridising with Ansellia and you now get flowers with very dark and huge spots on them. If you do visit the Kruger National Park you may see them growing and flowering in the trees.

Does Ansellia hybridize with cymbidiums?
