Coelogyne lawrenceana


This plant was labelled as Coelogyne merrillii when i bought it. Not sure about the name but the flower is defnitely very beautiful.
I think it should be Coelogyne lawrenceana.
Thanks to comment from Natalja, and after checking the pic on IOSPE i think this is more likely Coelogyne eberhardtii. Please correct me again if you think this beautiful flower should be something else.

  3. Hi Joe,

    Flower of c.eberhardtii is smaller (8-9 cm) than flower of c.lawrenceana (10-13) .How big is flower of yours? And how big is plant self?
