    ...Or Prosthechea cochleata, or Anacheilium cochleatum, or whatever they're calling it these days. Common as dirt, but I love it. This one has larger and darker flowers than others I've seen. I grow it I/W with Cattleya-type light. Easy grower.

    There is nothing wrong with common. It is an awesome flower. Nice photo, too.
