Do you like the fragrance?
Keep in mind that if they pop their pollen, the flowers will wilt literally the next day. Only take the pollen if you are ready to say goodbye.

Thank you, William! I saw your pictures of Cyc. Fire Embers on OrchidRoots—if that’s the one you’re referring to, that’s one clean looking plant…dare I say spotless?
But in all seriousness, if it wasn’t mislabeled it’s pretty novel precisely because it doesn’t have spots!
The fragrance puzzled me at first because it didn’t have one yesterday—today I got notes of black pepper, ginger, and clove all riding on a base of like sugar cookies/vanilla I guess? Definitely a sweet, ‘baked goods’ type of fragrance, strangely suited for the holidays as we smell them in North America!
As for the pollen, I’ll sabotage the last flower if anything!
