Default Rhyncostylis Gigantea "Red"
This is the first time she's blessed me with twin blooms. The scented blossoms are maroon in the shade and glow like rubies when the sunlight shines through them. They smell heavenly during sunlight hours.

Rhyncostylis are very slow growers. It usually takes about three years for the first bloom to appear where i live.

It may take a little longer if your in a country where it has cooler seasons....I'm not sure.
