Catasetum tenebrosum
 

I almost forgot this in the corner all winter and early spring I was surprised to find it has grown a large plant and thats when I started watering again...then the spike worried me that it might blast...I am lucky that I have at least four of the 12 buds that formed...this has a fragrance of ivory soap...very slight clean scent

Very nice. Good growing.

Very nice..So that's what it looks like. I have one in spike, hope mine looks half as good as yours. Good growing

Good growing! That's really cool!

Thank You, Tucker !

Thank You, bellini girl ! water it well and fertilizer as you do regularly so the buds wont blast

Thank You, Sonya !

Nice! This species would always start growing and then go dormant much sooner than my other Catasetinae. I would always keep it out in front of the others so as to know when it would need to be watered or not.

Thank You, Steve ! I will take note about that...I dont wanna kill this plant by neglect...altho this plant never gave me any problems at all...it just has a mind of its own

Thank You, Gloria !

Nice plant! 4 buds is still better than none, and I like the color combo.

Thank You, Camille! I was lucky I had blooms from this...I really neglected it bigtime...
