Psychopsis Mendenhall 'Hildos'
Just less than a month after the last flower wilted, my Psychopsis Mendenhall is once again in bloom. The flower opened yesterday, and it is 5" in height.
Flower variation between 1st and 2nd bloomings
Interestingly, both the color and the form have improved the second time around. This flower is flatter, the lateral sepals are wider, and the orange bars are much more pronounced.
I also took some photos showing the growth progression of the flower bud, with the first picture being taken the same day as when the old flower fell off.
