Finally starting to open! It’s always a surprise when this Speciosa hybrid blooms- the color combos on each flower is so variable, you never know what you’ll get. I’ll put a pic in the comments to show off all the other spikes on this baby. I think there are like 15 buds total- the most I’ve ever seen on this orchid. 😍
