Stanhopea Mormon Pioneer ?
This is the same plant and same psudobulb that produced the flowers that I posted in May of this year. The flowers are quite different. The may flowering occurred indoors in front of a south facing window. Those blooming now have been outside hanging in a tree all summer. The first photo is the May bloom and the others are the from this month.
This hybrid should be Stan. I ( gibbosa X panamensis ). I received the plant from
Hoosier Orchids in 1996. I'm not sure what Mormon Pioneer should look like, but this still looks and smells like oculata to me.
