Default Angraecum Calceolus

Although it's been sprayed twice for spider mites , the buds still managed to open . Tiny, but beautiful little flowers I think.

Very nice. I've read conflicting reports on whether this species is fragrant or not. Have you given it a sniff in the early evening after dark? Did you smell anything?

Agree, they aren't showy flowers, but they're still quite pretty.

I've been hesitant to stick my nose anywhere near this bug infested one... but since it's been sprayed a couple of times I'll give it a sniff for you. Stand by for an update.

Good save! Don't worry, spider mites don't attack humans. Plus you probably bathe every now and then, which would knock them off your skin.

I detected no scent whatsoever.
