Cycnodes Taiwan Gold 'Taiwan Orange'
Hi,
I've waited for this one 9 months (full pregnancy, lol) and I have to say it doesn't dissapoint. I've kept it on my windowsill since it's my first time trying this genus, but I'll bring it outside next summer to see for any improvement in growth and flowering. The scent, or odor, as some might call it is unusual- I think Yazz posted earlier that it smells like vinyl...

The smell is unusual, but the beauty of the flowers more than make up for it. Well done!

A most interesting color! Putting it outside for the summer will be the best thing you can do for it. I give my hybrid Cats full sun from sunrise until mid afternoon, and they love it.

Thank you! The flowers are starting to wilt now, so it's about 3 weeks- it might be also because I'm forcing this one into dormancy (stopped all watering in mid-December).
