Catasetum Black Knight female flowers
Default Catasetum Black Knight female & male flowers
I thought I would post as I don't see the female flowers often. I'll post a photo here of the males when the next spike is ready. I believe Black Night is tenebrosum x expansum and can be quite variable in male flower color.

As promised, here are the male flowers - these are really cool - there is a trigger that ejects the pollinium with such speed it will make you jump
