This is incredible, just an amazing plant! I'm so envious that you are able to grow a giant orchid and have it outside to thrive. It must really be a sight to see in person! Beautiful, just beautiful.

Last year, this gentle giant decided to bloom sporadically over several months. This year it has flowered enmass. In less than one week the display went from a handful of flowers to 90% bloomed. I was truly shocked one morning when I went out to check it out. Counting the added width contributed by the overhanging flower spikes, it is 8-9 feet wide. In bright sun it will hurt your eyes to gaze upon it. MIND BOGGLING!

It's a floriferous monster oncidium. Call Guiness Book of World Records, for real.
