I had some doing that last month, two flowers trying to squeeze each other out.
The one in the first pic seems to be winning ![ROFL](https://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/rofl3.gif)

Cool! They look really nice back to back-I hadn't thought they would be so good looking!
There's just one petal to go back a bit more(on the left?or is it the photo?) and they would be perfectly back to back... I'll let you know if mine opens like that or just one deformed flower,I hope it's siamese like yours!!

I don't think that it can go back anymore, that's where the stem is. good luck

That is really neat . I can say that I have never seen anything like that before either . Would be interesting if they do open up and last as long as the others do or prematurally drop .

I've had one do that before. It had a double lip. If I remember correctly your is much better color and form then mine was. If I look hard enough I can find the picture.

Dave, did yours only have the double lip once? Any idea what it could be due to?
Thanks!
If you do come across the photo.. please do post a pic! I'm always interested in seeing different sorts of 'odd ball' flowers.
