That's fantastic. Even though (due to its consistent year-round heat requirements) I would never dream of attempting to grow this species, I still can't help but admire those nice tall stems loaded with blooms. Would you be opposed to parting with some pollinia?

The leaf span at its widest point is 24 inches, tip to tip. I took another photo of the plant almost two weeks after the last photo. I'm hoping the flowers hold up for the Honolulu Orchid Society Show this coming weekend.
