Staurochilus ionosma
Once known as Trgl. ionosma, this is a large climbing, vanda-like species. Their flowers are about 2cm in diameter, and sometimes they are fragrant.

I might be weird, but I also enjoy the foliage. Can you show us some roots and foliage as well as the wonderful flower?

I am far away from my home now, but there is a photo I took in a local nursery that i think you might enjoy it.

I think good foliage and good flowers should go hand in hand. Also, exceptional roots don't hurt. 
If you have good foliage then it's still pleasing to look at and enjoy when the plant is not in bloom. |

Ah. Thank you. Now I can go about my business.

PS. Some nursery.

Rsfrid, they would grow into large plants, higher than 1 meter, if with good care.
