Thanks. I will get a whole spike picture on the next one to open. This was one of the last flowers from the first blooming, but it has 6 more developing.

Thanks. These are harder to get a good shot of than Coelogyne usitana. The people who get those good side shots of Gongora's must be very flexible.

I support you on the difficulty to shot gongoras, but would we do for our little dragons?

Very nice shot and flower

Every different species I had through the years all smelled the same to me for some reason. I would same it is a citrusy(if this is a word) smell.

For quinquevernis: Cloves-lily of the valley-cinnamon

Gongoras go from apricot to nutmeg or adhesive tape… A few are in the citrus domain.

Nice. I wish the flowers were longer lasting. Thanks for sharing.
