Amazing that the tree did not crash down with all that weight upon its shoulders.. :D Very nice.. Wonder how long my tiger orchid will take to bloom..

Wow!

That's plenty of flower stalks for a small clump. Magnificent!
Roughly how's the elevation is like in it's natural habitat(feet above sea level).

It's lowland, approximately 50ft asl. The warm and humid surrounding forest must have help with its healthy growth.
