Angraecum sesquipedale, var bosseri
When I got this as a tiny seedling about 9 years ago, it was considered a different species. Anyway, I finally got it to bloom.

I did not notice anything this afternoon, and greenhouse is 35 miles from my house, so I can't just pop out and check for evening fragrance.
I also bloomed a standard sesquipedale, which I got as a tiny seedling at the same time. It had two spikes with two flower each, so I sent it off to the SEPOS show.
