Also known as Coelogyne massangeana...the spike and blooms open really fast, in about a week.
Blooms are fragrant.
This is a large plant, but if we consider their potencial, this one is considered small.

I only discovered what orchid is this one year ago 'cause it has never bloomed before. I always thought is was a Xylobium.
Added a photo of when I received it as a gift from my parents as a souvenir from Madeira Islands where they went for vacations.

Enjoy...

Love it. That lip is like a Rorschach test!

That is really interesting. It looks braided. Very cool. The ruffles on the lip almost seem to mimic the braiding on the spike.

It is a lovely bloom. The brown coloring is striking, but the "transparent" striping on the white petals really sets it apart for me!
