Den. pendulum - from the pages of Dr. Seuss ;)
Natural selection? I think not. I'm pretty sure this one is a Seuss creation. Who else could dream up this plant? Wish i were a more skilled photographer... my pictures don't do it justice.
Anyone else growing this one? I don't see many around.

Don't ya love this one?!! Your Seuss reference is totally appropriate!!
I love the shape of the canes and the combo of colors in the flowers...just gorgeous. Mine is budding up currently!!
How long are your canes? Your largest looks shorter than mine and that makes me wonder if I should be giving it more light. It has buds, yes, but if I could shorten up the canes a bit, it would be easier in my space. What level of light are you giving it?

Mine is in bloom but only two inflorescences, each with two flowers 
How did you get so many blooms on the cane?
And yes, it normally grows hanging down.
