I have never been a huge fan of plants with white flowers, but this little guy fascinates me. Maybe it's those very-white, nubby roots. And talk about a powerful nighttime scent!

I just got in a bunch of them, and I'm thinking about adding one to my terrarium.

You are right, Ray. This is a fascinating little plant and with a very strong night fragrance!

and they do very well in terrarium as well... The plant in the picture spent 3 years in my terrarium until I moved it to the greenhouse.

I really like this orchid, it's cute, and elegant looking. Unfortunately for it it seems to be runner up in nearly all the plant projects. I think I'll just have to get one anyway!

Mine just finished blooming! Love this little plant. Reliable, beautiful, and relatively easy to care for. Great photos!

Very nice! What does it smell like to you? How big is your plant?
