Clowesia rosea
 
First time bloomer. Some may say it has long lasting flowers but few flowers of mine are about to drop now after 10 days...

It is on a piece of hardwood/branch but they should do well on cork.

Gorgeous blooms! Dunno about shredded nylon though, the lip makes me think more of a downy feather.

Very nice, Tom. Try keeping it cooler and out of direct sunlight to prolong the life of the blooms. The flowers on my Cl. rosea last, on average, about two weeks. The trade off to keeping it out of direct sunlight, however, is that the wonderful fragrance isn't nearly as intense when the plant's in the shade.
