Default Another Ansellia africana

Three spikes this year with over one hundred buds and blooms. The plant itself (not including the flower spikes) is over three feet tall.

Great flowering . I understand these are often referred to as the "South African Speciosum" so I wonder if it should not be included in the Dendrobium forum as they are more Dendrobium than Cymbidium in character.

They are related to Cymbidium, so this is actually a good place for them, along with Grammatophyllum. There are Cymbidium x Grammatophyllum hybrids. I don't know about Ansellia x Cymbidium.

Wow, amazing blooms. Remind me of a Phalaenopsis.
