Don't you wish you could bottle it? Deeelish!

mmm yes delicious! I have a yellow bird - I wonder if that one smells since it has nodosa parentage I think

Lucky you! I love sweetly perfumed orchids.

whitecat,

I really like that phal in the background. What is it?

The wonderful nodosa, wish mine were blooming! You're in for a wonderful treat! That phal is a cutie, is it a violacea cross?

Calvin, my yellow bird (that I LOVE, because it's always in bloom) is sweetly fragrant. Not as intense as the nodosa, but very nice.

Thanks, all. The Phal to the left is Dtps. Sogo Gotris (Phal. Be Tris x Dtps. Sogo Manager). No fragrance but stays small. WC8

That's funny, I had to get rid of my nodosa because I was deathly allergic to the citrusy-scent. And actually, I didn't love the scent - one flower would waft all the way across the room. It is funny how everyone perceives the scents differently.

John, that's too bad. I know what you mean, though. People rave about the scent of Den rigidum. The one I smelled was like something that had died.

When you say deathly allergic - how did your body react? Were we in danger of losing you to a killer 'chid?
