Ok just found out this one has been renamed. hehe. So goes taxonomy.
I recieved this one as an extra in a trade. Nothing like free orchids!! It was a small cutting with two pbulbs, and I never thought it would bloom in just a few months. But here it is, in bloom, with two more buds, and one very fat growing new pbulb. Now I have an octopus orchid, hehe. |
Super neat one, Tindo. How's the fragrance?

Wow it really does look like an octopus!!! It's very unique!
|
I did not detect any fragrance. Is it supposed to have one?
|
Really neat little plant, Tindo. You know my love for the little guys.
|
Great growing Tindo!!!
|
Way to go Tindo! :bowing Congrats on getting this little guy to bloom. :D

Here is an update. My lovely wife to be said it smells like lavender.

Once they start they just don't stop. Mine has been blooming for about 6 years now without a pause. Sometimes more spikes, sometimes fewer, but always at least a couple.
I even split up and re-potted it about 2 years ago while in bloom. It needed it badly, and it just wouldn't stop blooming. The plant didn't even seem to notice the repotting, just kept going without a pause. It's blooms are kind of "subtle" for an orchid, but it's one of my favorites (my wife's too). I hope yours continues to perform for you the way mine has. Ed |
A continuous bloomer? Everyone needs one of them in their collection. Looks like a nice little orchids. Wonder if they would do as well in a greenhouse?
