I think I told you it's a beast! And, it's obviously very happy in Texas.
Dragon's is my favorite of all my Ctsm! Honestly, if I could only keep one in this group...Dragon's is the one that would stay.

I grow outside during the summer (March-November) and inside during winter. I'll post pics below.

Sure! It gets a lot of the Clowesia fragrance. I find its a mix of pine and anise. Similar to Cattleya walkeriana.
