Default Octomeria gracilis
Nice, bright flowers; scent most closely resembles grapefruit plus urine. Very cute, blooms randomly; the flowers are reasonably large for this genera.

Delightful flowers!

Nancy, I can always rely on your description of scents . I was wondering if you too can smell bacon with some brassavola & hybrids that always make me feel hungry at night?

Nice!

I love the smell of grapefruit and urine in the morning!

Seriously...it's beautiful strange scent and all!

Definitely fly pollinated.
