Default Laelia purpurata

This guy is now blooming for me for the third time this year! Unfortunately its been pretty rainy and cold here so the flowers did not open up as nicely as I would have liked, nor did I catch the buds in time to separate them, but Im happy to have guy blooming so often! Its actually kind of wierd to have a purpurata blooming so often. Im actually wondering if there is something wrong with it!
