Another one of my stunning stanhopea’s currently in flower – stanhopea oculata. It’s native to hot humid forests of Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil and it flowers with these showy large vanilla scented waxy flowers.
This season each flowering spike developed five flowers but oculata can carry up to 9 flowers, making quite a spectacle of color, textures and scents.
More spikes are developing on my plant hence more flowers later on of this popular, attractive and handsome stanhopea.
