Default Bifrenaria tetragona

Another one with a weird scent: a mixture of metal, garlic and dead fish (not rotten fish, but not fresh)
Its a huge plant, but an individual flower has only 5cm in diameter

That's a very interesting species, Frederico. Based on your description of the scent, I might get one for my sister's cat. :-)

Can this one be grown alongside Bifrenaria harrisoniae, or does it require a different treatment regimen?

Hi Steve!

Go ahead! It grows in the same contidions of Bifr harrisoniae! Easy grower, easy bloomer. The only problems with this guy are: its size (much bigger than an average harrisoniae) and the its "delicious perfume"!
