Great little Phal, the shape is really unusual and he spotting is a nice touch.
But i have to say that the Laelia is my favorite, oh wow! The colors are spectacular.

Which one was fragrant before? The white Phal?

Great plants and wonderful photography! I have a similiar (if not the same) white noid that you have. I love how delicate looking it is. Mine blooms faithfully every year as well and I find that it doesn't have a scent until all the buds are open (which is a kind of sweet floral one).

I'm willing to bet its the same one! Interesting, that could be the case with this one! All the buds aren't open yet. And I remember it took a little while before I noticed the fragrance before. Hope fully that's it!! Yes mine smelled that way too

Some say epiphytic orchids are parasite, for living on trees.. However, I say that orchids are parasites for luring us humans to take them into our homes to feed and care for them. Much more care than they would get in the wild....

Yay!! I can smell it now! Light sweet and floral!! Love t! There are 2 more buds left to open still. The older flowers are falling off they usually last a lot longer. I suspect it's because I've been really lazy with watering. It's been a week and a half since I watered last

*sneaks in and steals the white wonder phal while no one is paying attention*

I've never wished I lived in the US, but now I do, this so I could buy a future keiki of this adorable phal.

I'll just sit here and adore your photos of it instead...

p.s. great photos btw d.s.
