    This Porroglossum produces multitudes of spikes. In all species of Porroglossum, the lip is hinged and will snap shut when disturbed. I've tried to capture the lip both in the 'open' and 'closed' position.

    Beautiful! Heads up that it looks like you got a pic of your Porroglossum schramii mixed in

    This was the image I meant to upload.

    Does anyone know how to edit a previous post? I just want to remove the third photo above.
