Seeing your images before really drove me to locate this species for myself. It has always been one of my most favorite species!
I just think it is just so beautiful. The creamy ivory green petals and sepals that can be either more creamy or more greenish, are just so full. Then I just love that fuzzy lip with its dark purple color, it is just a fantastic combination! Absolutely stunning.
As for mine, both are producing new roots as well as a nice, new growth. I will keep my fingers Crossing Fingers! hoping that they will flower.
