Wow that is a beauty! Mine is in bloom now as well, but the first bud seems to be taking forever to open fully....I am starting to wonder if it will! I am growing mine in s/h culture....I didn't know it would do well mounted too!

I wish I could take credit for this beauty! I'll ask Tom, the grower, to share his cultural tips with orchidboard

[quote=caseydoll;52123]Just curious, how would you describe the smell? All my fragrant orchids are somewhat recent purchases and have yet to bloom. I've never smelled one fragrant orchid myself and I can't wait!

QUOTE]

Mine is the nice pastel type: Starts off with a white background but turns a very pale yellow with age while still keeping the pink markings. Each bloom measures 3 inches accross.The smell to me smells like Lucky Charms cereal in the morning, adding some orange to the mix by afternoon. Love it!!!!!!

how long do your blooms take to completely open?

Hello!
it is on south or east window under direct sunlight, when it is sunny, temperature in winter not under 15 C.

It did bloom at the end of april, for one month.
