Oncidesa Copper Falls
these spikes ( 2 ) are 4-5 feet tall. Blooms are magnificent in the sun. My peppadew is in the background, have harvested quite a few peppers from this perennial pepper.

one of the great things about Orchid Wiz is the note functionality. I checked and I noticed the spikes on October 9, 2013.
