This orchid has sprays of 1-inch blooms that spread over the surrounding plants.
I think most epiphytes have blooms that look like they come from an alien world. Actually I think the plants themselves often look otherworldly.
These orchids have intense color and a velvety texture. There are four 3" blooms each on two sprays.
These delicate blossoms face downwards. I wonder if the blooms will open more as they mature because they look droopy right now--definitely not a spectacular presentation as far as orchids go.
I'm not sure that I like seeing water droplets on the flowers. Maybe next time I'll take photos before watering.
