My Laelia Pulcherrima (Laelia lobata concolor "Jeni" x Laelia purpurata camea "Newberry Perfection") has bloomed again exactly one year after the first time blooming.

Beautiful duo of spikes. Very soft fragrant.

Growing outdoors in Central Florida

My airplant that I have nurtured for many years from a tiny two inches crown to the huge plant it is now is bloming. The spike is like more than three feet tall.

It benefited to be under one of my Vanda orchids, so everytime I feed the orchid some food and water reach it.

It is bittersweet, because I know that after they finish blooming, they release the spores to the wind and die.
