I bought this plant in July of 2011. Last year it produced a spike with 6 buds but they blasted. The spike this year has produced about 36 flowers. The flowers smell of chocolate mint.

Oh, wow~ Look at that!!!

What a reward from 6 (that you didn't get to enjoy) to 36!!! Is that typical of this plant to make so many flowers?

I wonder if any of my plants in the catasetum family will do that one day. hmmm

Absolutely stunning!! You have done a phenomenal job growing it.

Do you mind sharing where you got this one? I haven't seen it but would love to add it to my ever-expanding collection of Ctsm.
