Been putting in yeoman's work keeping my orchids safe.

Noticed a spike a couple of weeks ago and figured I would let it bloom. Opens sequentially and each bloom only stays open for a handful of hours and then withers. I believe these can self pollinate which explains the short window of being open.

How gorgeous! I have several species now that have bloomed, but my favorite is my pink blooming capensis. I know, it's basic, but the spike of flowers is dainty and bright!
