Haraella odorata *MINI*
Here is my latest Haraella odorata double bloom. This one is in my 20 gallon orchidarium/vivarium. The scent is pretty strong as you can imagine.
Sue, if you are listening, I have found a weak, yet possible corrolation between wetting the roots daily, and scent. My other H. odorata does not have a scent anymore since I stopped directly misting it. This one did not have a scent when I was not misting it directly, but ever since I started, the blooms have been full of scent. Maybe that's it, myabe not.

What a great looking haraella. Mine's in bloom right now with a 2nd a few days away from showing itself. I mist mine twice a day, with dunk watering every week and the fragrance is so nice. I would love to have mine in double bloom like your's Tin...good job

 I really wished mine would have a scent (even a bad one). I have 5 plants and only 2 have bloomed right now (3 are real new) but neither has any scent at all - that I can determine. |

Perhaps the fact that mine is in a tank the smell is concentrated so I detect it. However, the scent is very strong, close to pungent, but lemony.
