Clowesetum Melana's Daughter- 2 siblings

[isurus79]

Check out these two siblings! One has a pink flush on the sepals and petals with small flower (first two photos). The other has larger flowers with broader sepals and petals, but less color and is awarded (third photo). The awarded one is 'Denali' AM/AOS and I made a video comparing the two: Show & Tell- Clowesetum Melana's Daughter - YouTube

Amazing. These is a strange reminiscence of a den nobile flower.

Nice growing, as always, Steve!

Fantastic flowers Steve! I love the slight ruffling of the lip, and now I'm really looking forward to seeing mine bloom for the first time. Watching the spikes grow is agony.

These are simply gorgeous in color, Steve. Now that's the kind of Ctsm I need!

Kind of a sweet floral scent, maybe a bit like gardenia? Sorry for the poor description!

No, that's good! That gives something to go off of!

I have one ctsm that smells like lemon starbursts

I know many have a "lemony" scent haha
