Maxillaria picta.
Good grief, finally!
I got Maxillaria picta as a small 1" tall seedling with 3 tiny pseudobulbs, about 5 yrs ago. :biggrin: My baby is all growed up, and... It bloomed...:biggrin: Post pics tomorrow! Smells nice too, kinda hard to describe, the closest thing I could think of was apricots. |
:cheer: exciting!!!

The fragrance got stronger today! It is better described as honey and apricots.
Pics! |
What a little cutie you've raised!

It's nice. I love the random red spotting. :)

Thank you all!
Carl, I love the red spotting too! I like the fact that this particular plant has nice markings on the lip. I also loved how it caught me by surprise when it bloomed, I thought it was another shoot at first. It's amazing how many of my plants started blooming during a lousy past couple of weeks. Kinda nice to have good stuff happen during these kinds of situations. :) |
GOOD growing, Philip!
I also had my first Max picta in flower in February. A very pleasant surprise! The concensus on this end is that it has a very strong, sweet fragrance. |
