    Oh my gosh... That's absolutely incredible, Marni. I don't think I've ever seen a specimen like that.

    I say we call this one:

    Barkeria spectabilissima "Marni's Masterpiece!"

    Thank you for sharing this one, Marni. I always enjoy it when mine blooms, a couple times a year, with 3-4 flowers mounted, but I have never seen a specimen-sized plant like this one. What a treat. Thank you!

    Spectabilis seems to be the right name when I see this spectacular specimen. Absolutely beautiful.
