Catasetum Black Knight female & male flowers
 

I thought I would post as I don't see the female flowers often. I'll post a photo here of the males when the next spike is ready. I believe Black Night is tenebrosum x expansum and can be quite variable in male flower color.

As promised, here are the male flowers - these are really cool - there is a trigger that ejects the pollinium with such speed it will make you jump

Pretty neat looking blooms!

Cool. Can't wait to see the rest.

Nice! I'm very interested seeing those male flowers too.

Very nice blooms!

What I wouldn't give for some female flowers... Any tips?

Cool!
