Looks like you are already growing fragrant orchids. You are successful with many different types. Not sure what your question is?

Jane

I see a lot of sun and hot weather in the summer! I'm on the opposite side, I have masdevalia and numerous miltoniopsises. Phals too, one wilsonara and paph delenati. Vandas, dendrobiums and cymbidiums are out of question :(

Jane - I was just wondering if anyone had any favorite fragrant orchids that might work for me :)

Zygopetalum!

Encyclia cordigera is a favorite fragrance of mine. It has a nice chocolate fragrance. My encyclia Green hornet has a clean lemony like scent which is pretty nice too. Both would work for you.

Zygopetalum are at the top of my list for fragrance.

I have lately been interested in Chinese cymbidiums, I picked up a Ensifolium "Iron Bone" just last week. Ensifoliums are smaller and don't need the cold temps like the other types and they are said to be fragrant.

I also like Encyclia Cordigera, I have the Roseum type that you could smell as soon as you walk into the room. I divided mine this spring and would be happy to send you one if you like. I need to make space

I have and like encyclia roughly profuse. Not only smells nice but lasts a long time. I have a lot of Brassavola Little Stars. It grows like a weed here. The buds are close to opening. Any day...

Yes please, James!
