This is one of the larger plants in this species that I currently have. It's got 11 spikes on it and each spike has at least 3 buds. If it blooms like one of the smaller ones, the spike will continue to grow longer and new buds will form. I'm hoping anyway!

Thank you, I'm trying to get somewhat proficient at orchid photography.

Tommy, I'll post when the begin to open. This species flowers open in succession. Bottom buds first and then when they fall, the next one up on the spike opens. Hopefully with 11 spikes, I'll get a good grouping of open blossoms.

Thanks for looking Rosie! I appreciate the kind words

Thank you Tindomul and Sonya! Very kind of you to comment.

I love these little plants. Even when they aren't in bloom they look nice. The foliage moves with the slightest of breezes. I have noted that this species needs lots of air movement.
