Default My Dove Orchid Is In Bloom
My Peristeria elata is finally in bloom. The total height of the flower stem is more than 3 feet tall. I received this plant a few years ago from an auction at one of our society meetings. I did not know at that time what I was bidding on. I'm glad I won the bid. The plant is growing in bark in a 6-inch plastic pot. The flowers are very fragrant.

Just gorgeous! Mine's blooming right now, too! Glad you won the bid on this one. It's quite a star in anyone's collection.
