I got this one from Orchids by Peter White and it was shipped with six (!) spikes in bloom. As you can see, it lost almost all of its flowers after being unpacked and repotted. Not surprising since it spent a week in a box, so I'm glad that all of the spikes have decided to continue growing and are producing more buds. The scary part though is that I've discovered what looks like two or three more spikes protruding from the stem! I'm worried that this guy's going to bloom itself to death.
As a bonus I noticed that the flowers have a lovely fragrance that becomes more pronounced during the brightest hours of the day.
