Cattleya iricolor flowering progression

[Subrosa]

I can smell iricolor throughout my entire house......I highly suggest smelling this one before buying, because if you don't like how it smells you have a real problem!

Subrosa, would you please describe the scent of your Iricolor? I have an order for one of these in with Equagenera and now I am worried . . . . .

The best description I can give is that it smells like a sweetened olive oil. The fragrance is strongest from late morning to early afternoon.

Thank you Subrosa. Hmmmmm. Sweetened olive oil. Well, i am really curious. I just had to have it when I read what Arthur Chadwick wrote -- that it had displaced Dowiana, in his estimation, as having the biggest scent.
