Robiquetia cerina 'Waterfield' AM AOS
This is a first bloom for this robust looking plant. The plant is 5 inches tall measured from the top of the pot to the crown. The plant is in a 3-inch pot with New Zealand sphagnum moss as the media. The open flowers have a spread of 1/8 inch. The plant started blooming 9 days ago. This is a sequential bloomer. The older flowers on the top rows are closing as the lower rows of buds open.

Very cool plant and blooms. I had a chance to get one of these a few years ago, but I passed it by. Now I see that was a big mistake. Must go out and find another one! Thanks for sharing the pictures of your beautiful plant and blooms. Do the flowers have any fragrance?

Don't see any stubs of previous blooms. Is this the first? How much time between blooms if a sequential bloomer? Cool looking orchid.

Hi Don. This is the first bloom for this plant. The photo was taken on Jan. 23, 2010. Here is a link to a photo taken of the plant on Jan. 14, 2010. You can compare the progress of the blooms between Jan. 14 and Jan. 23.
