Default Cochleanthes candida
A small but strongly scented beauty! The lavander/blue color is very cool!

Everyone go buy Patricia Harding's book on the complex - Huntleyas and their relatives. Great value.

Never saw the candida...it's very pretty. I've only had one Coch. (marginata) and I killed it last summer....think I kept it too wet. I'm tempted to get another one now, after seeing yours.

Do it Sandy!
You won't regret it
I had a problem blooming my cochs until I let them dry a bit and that solved the problem

OK, Dorothy, you talked me into it. Actually, when I got off the board last night, I set up an alert search in ebay. Anywhere else you can recommend for these?
