Default Grammatophyllum speciosum - How Big Can It Grow?

As you guys might already know, Grammatophyllum speciosum can easily become a big giant clump. But, it is very rare that we can see such speciment. Usually, what we see being sold in orchid nursery only have 3-5 canes.

I'd like to share 2 marvellous speciment that I found around where I live.

First clump
This is next to a restaurant in my hometown. I've seen this plant since 14 years ago and it is already a big clump back then. Luckily enought for me, it is also in bloom.







Second clump
This is in one of the nursery in Nibong Tebal



If anybody is interested in viewing it yourself, I'll be more than happy to be your tour guide (provided I'm home at the time )
