Default Trichopilia suavis...finally found it!
you know you're an orchid enthusiast when..............

you finally get the orchid that's been at the top of your wish list and the buds are just an added treat!

Have been looking for this for quite some time now and finally found it. The wait is over! It took a long time to find and wouldn't you know it, there are now 2 on ebay. I'll take pics when the buds bloom. These flowers are amazing.

Intermediate, low light and never dry. Have this (and also a Trichopilia tortillis, another beauty!) in CHC, sphagnum, tree fern.

Congrats!
How exciting! I'll be looking foward to the pics. As for the ones on ebay... I'm sure they're not anywhere near the quality of yours... unless that is, they are from one of the few really good vendors on there.

Lucky you!

I actually saw one of these at my local botanical garden, but did not know what type of orchid it was. Now I know! Thanks!

Yup, Nicole...one of the few really good vendors on ebay, Incredible Orchids and Brian's got another one for sale, a double spiker!!! His orchids are just as pristine as some of the larger, well known nurseries.

Sandy - I took these photos at the GNYOS a few years back - The sauvis was an award winner - They are beauties .. If I remember correctly, I believe they had a fragrance.

You know you are an orchid enthusiast when you go to the botanical garden, and an interesting orchid isn't labeled.....and it drives you crazy!

(Admittedly, it isn't a long drive.)

First class choice, Sandy! The flowers are huge and intensely perfumed. I also grow it and really love it. Take a look at mine:
