I love that fleshy, shiny petals- I can see why this your favourite!

Really nice display. Looks like it likes you.

Great flowering and wonderful texture and substance!

I love it! It's gorgeous,one of my favorite orchids is Slc. Tutankamen 'POP'and this is one of it's parents.~Charm

Thanks everyone for your comments.
Kevin, it really, really does like me! Over the 8 or so years it's been in my possession, this orchid has been afflicted very badly and very often with mealy bugs (it's a mealy bug magnet, unfortunately)... overgrown its pot so quickly I didn't have time to repot...then when it got so heavy it fell on the floor...no scars whatsoever.
Fragrant, beautiful, devoted...what more could an orchid person want?

Is this the one that smells like chocolate???!!! I'm a real newbie to orchids but have heard there is one that does in fact smell like chocolate! Anyone know where in Canada one can be found??

Hi Carol! What a beauty!!!!
She really loves you!
Might I have enought light for catts!
I have some but they suffer for lack of light.
I am glad to see a post from you!
Lot's of love
