Beautiful! Are they fragrant? I have a mystery coelogyne in bud. A forum friend suggested it might be cristata.

Many of them are but my cristata was not fragrant at all. I was surprised it bloomed so close to reporting. So I did not miss the fragrance too much.

Lovely, huge looking, blooms.

Beautiful!

My plant doesn't look the greatest. Perhaps I didn't give it enough water. Now the buds are shriveled looking, I hope the blooms will develope enough to let the blooms unfurl.

Congrats.
Saw a couple of similar beauties at the Toronto show.

Nick- Hopefully mine will grow up to look like yours! I am not sure I will be moving it about if it does.

How much does that thing weigh?

My first budded division mystery coelogyne was blown off a table yesterday.....the spike that I was so anxious to see unfurl snapped off :( I cut off the smaller buds and put the spike in a vase of rain water. Just hoping they might be far enough along to unfurl.

Best of show! fantastic. Magnificent plant. Well done.
