This pretty Orchid arrived in spike in December. It was part of a beautiful Christmas present.
As I was watering the plant daily, tiny tiny buds appeared on the still almost smooth sprays. They then filled out and little spurs appeared. The flowers are really showy and from the distance look like a miniature white waterfall.
Very cute!!
The photo below shows the arching sprays almost open.
This one too is part of the same group as the citrata above, and it also was in spike, when it arrived.
Both plants received dappled sunlight ( Winter in NJ ) and ample rainwater.
The flowers are VERY fragrant in the evening, the scent is typical of white, night pollinated flowers, very similar to the Epiphyllum oxypetalum. The output of these three little flowers is amazing.
