Following on from this nice thread -
link - and after the new orchid came in ----- and now repotted into my own media of choice - and noticing that the flower held up reasonably well in the post, I took a couple of phone-pics of the flower. It smells like clothes ironing spray ------ slightly lemony - but with ironing spray smell added -- not too bad hehe.
This flower is expected to be toward the latest stages of bloom. The lines and colouring on the tepals have faded a fair bit. Still looking nice and elegant though.
