Default Trichopilia suavis full of flowers

Here's my Tricho suavis. Total count is 25 flowers on a single plant. Perfume is wonderfully intoxicating. It is ending its flowering period now, but it is so beautiful that I had to show you. Hope you like it!
(Hope I have correctly made the photos insertion!!)

Outstanding
I saw these at the Orchid Show and they are impressive to see live.
I don't recall their fragrance but I am sure it is how you have described it

Thank you guys! Since 2002, when it became a large plant, 18 flowers each season is the minimum it gives. So, it is always a joy when I see the buds coming. It has been awarded the best plant in every show it participates. Unfortunately, two years ago the plant disappeared during a show in Sao Paulo and was only found when the police was about to come. Since then I avoid sending it to shows. What a shame, because its flowers deserved to be appreciated!

Hi Rosim

What an outstanding plant!
congratulations.

Can you resume the conditions where you keep it and the care that is given?
