I love the smell of rotten! NOT! I wonder about people who grow these things!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

That's a cute one, I am not familiar with it though.

Great photo too!

Oh man! I had no idea there were foul smellers in the Masdie family! Thanks for the warning. I wouldn't want that in my orchidarium. I'd never get rid of the smell.
