(Aerides lawrenciae x Rhynchostylis coelestis)

I've had this one for about two years. It was one of my dear friend Ron's

chids and has bloomed for me before but this is the best one yet!

The plant itself looks terrible but if it's gonna give me blooms like this, I'm fine with that

It smells exactly like FrootLoops cereal!

Wow Susanne, it is beautiful. The pastel colors are awesome. I love it. How big or small is the plant? I might have room for one.

We are getting chilly again and I called the local orchid society and donated an entire pick up truck full of plants that I had growing outside for the summer that I did not feel I could feasibly get back into my greenhouse without a lot of caotic clutter. They even sent a couple to my house to pick them up. Two thirds were over-grown den-phals that were in spike or bloom and there were also some cats., onc., vandas and epis. They should produce a nice chunk of change at the upcoming auction.

It sure is a beauty. I have one too that just finished blooming. I'd go out and smell it all the time.

Way to go on the donation!

I'm sure the club appreciates your generosity!

The plant is pretty small and it looks like it's on it's way out all the time but it must be happy because she blooms every year

I'll take a picture of it tomorrow
