Unfortunately the top flower is a bit deformed which is not uncommon with this clone.

:drool: I want one! The shape and color of this clone is really nice. Your plant looks very healthy and big. How many growths?
Great spike and lovely markings.
Was it your award?

It has about a dozen growths. It is a big plant. It actually had 3 spikes last year.
Yes, it was my award. My first award actually. I think it is an AM quality clone though. The flower that was judged was 3 and half months old and fell over 4 days later, so it was way passed its best. Plus it had a small defect which would have cost it points. It keeps throwing up deformed flowers lately so haven't been able to get it judged again.

A great display David, and one of my favourites too although a little slow growing. That's a big plant for this kind, so you're doing great with it. Mine has just thrown another spike and I'm hoping for 3 flowers again but need to try to get them all out together this time. Any ideas on this?

This one is a pretty good grower fortunately. I have another one I haven't flowered yet which is a little slower growing. It is up to 4 good size growths now.
Three flowers is good going with this hybrid. I have never achieved 3 nor do most clones. So are the bottom flowers finishing before the last one is open? That would be impossible on mine as the flowers ar so long lasting - well over 3 months. This hybrid would have the long lasting flowers in my collection. I think I could have 5 flowers on a spike and they would all be open together. I'm not sure why yours would be so short. I expect yoo won't have a problem this time.

The flowers do last David, but the first did drop first before the 3rd opened. I don't change the culture/watering so not sure only wait to see what happens. I have a haynaldianum alba with 2 flowers open but the 2 remaining buds seem to have stalled. Not sure what the answers are.
