I agree, the encyclia fragrance is great. I have one with the same coloration as yours that just finished blooming. A couple of years ago I had a purple cordigera that was even more fragrant but I lost it to a fungus problem. I plan to collect some other encyclias in the future. Your's is very nice.

Beautiful flowers! And fragrant at that ! My Encyclia is still in bloom and the fragrance gets stronger with the sunlight...even if the sun is overcast it doesnt diminish its fragrance...

Very nice! I have a similarly colored one and like it so much I got a second, even with very limited space. The fragrance is delightful. Good growing!
