That is one excellent flower, its filled in shape is a long way above most or all I've seen. Fabulous clone.

I've never seen this orchid before (only heard of it) and it is amazing!! I love the color and spots on the blooms.

Just a minor detail, the correct way to write it's name is Rhynchostylis gigantea 'Spots'.

The g must be lowercase since the plant is a species, and the Spots is between apostrophes to indicate that it is the clonal/cultivar name.

This is another one I have on my "someday" list. Just gorgeous.

P.S. Camille, you're really putting OrchidWiz to great use, I see!

Oh wow! What a beauty for sure

I want to put this high on the wish list, but this guy looks like it would be pretty sizable

Jackie, that's very nice! Looks too big for my space, so I'll enjoy yours for now.

Thanks Terri, but she's really not that big. I have lots of vanda's that blow her size away!! 3' tall, not including roots. This baby is only about 9-10" tall.
