Sedirea japonica
After seeing Salixx's post about this plant, I just had to get one. Found one on eBay and it was in spike when I received it. Now flowering, a citrus scent like others have noted, but not as strong as a bellina.

So you're the one who outbid me! What a beauty!
Indeed, it's likely I also bid on that plant, but I often bid on this species when it appears. I have two now, younger plants which haven't yet bloomed but which, after a year, are so, so close to mature enough. I'm quite jealous that yours is!

I have resisted buying any of these...must not look....look at Neos instead. The flowers on this plant are just so gorgeous I may have to give up and try one.
Congratulations on your win, sorry John but there will others I'm sure!

Great. I have two. One rebloomed on me. Now they are not doing much. The flowers do not last long though. Enjoy!

Wasn't me. I'm on a different continent and it was a 'Buy Now' sale. EBay can be a bit disheartening when you get outbid in the last few seconds. Hope you get one soon.  |

Oh, I'm not truly concerned anyway. Whomever got the ones I recently bid on deserves to have them! As I said, I already have two of the plants. I just bid on them from trusted eBay sellers to see what happens, as I do with a few other species I also don't need. What truly matters is that you got a beauty, and I hope it brings you many years of joy. |

I'm surprised to read you saying this. Mine last more than a month, which seems pretty long to me. However, the scent weakens as time goes on, it's definitely stronger when the blooms are fresh. Regardless, they are beautiful! |

Flowering again - it seems to grow at cooler temperatures than most phalaenopsis other than that it is given the same conditions.
