Here's my plant in its new basket. It had been hanging on my orange tree, but due to the cold weather we've been having all of my orchids are inside for awhile.

The good news is that it has the beginnings of at least two additional spikes starting to form.

I love these Dens. I have one myself but so far it has yet to bloom. It is starting a new cane though so maybe this year...

Doing some research I found that the canes have to reach a certain height before they bloom. I was glad I was somehow able to find a very large and mature plant locally, which I didn't think would happen

Fascinating blooms on this species. Are the flowers fragrant?

Yes, they are. Particularly in the afternoon.
