The original flower is still trying but it's looking quite tatty. It did first open on 6th May though

Re: Machairophyllum
Can't complain about that for flower life. I have some slipper orchids that don't last as long in flower!

Re: Machairophyllum
I took a trip down the garden path this evening and found this.
Very happy to see the three flowers open at the same time.
An hour later I took another trip and guess what.

Re: Machairophyllum
Great display Fred. Does it always flower this well and are other clones as prolific flowerers?
