Clowesia Kengar 'Phantasies'
One of the 2 chids in bud I got on the 11th at the Fishing Creek Orchids open house. This one's 7/8ths Clowesia rosea and blooms are smaller, the fully open one is approx 1".
12/20 It's about 80% in bloom now with 5 spikes.
Last pix is in full bloom.

Nice one, Chryss! That's a great pickup. How's the fragrance? I got rid of a big Grace Dunn a couple of years ago because it smelled kind of weird.

This will be a great display when it all opens. I love the scent of my Rebecca Northen, so I am also curious about the scent of this one.

Great and healthy looking plant. Hopefully the scent of Clowesia rosea carries through.
