The dorsal sepal is cupped just a bit, so I had to take this from a low angle otherwise it was too dark. Just repotted this plant 2 months ago today. Its a large plant, so it has been slow to acclimate. I hope to have big spikes and more flowers this time next year.

This pic is from when the sun was behind the clouds. It shows more detail, but I wanted you all to see how glossy waxy this flower is in the other pic.

Assuming it's a gigantea cross of some sort? It's lovely!
