Made my week to see them blooming in the wild.







Sorry the focus was off, but you get the idea.

How big was the plant? Can't really tell from the photos. Must be cool to see them in the wild. I'll have to wait until they start growing on the sides of the Westin hotel...

Pseudobulbs were about 1/2-3/4 inch, with leaves 3-5 inches. The plant in the first pic was smaller than the plant in the latter two pics.
