B. nodosa x Enc. cordigera
This is probably my favorite nodosa hybrid. It looks absolutely fantastic, it blooms probably 3x per year and it is the only orchid I have encountered that has 2 completely different scents at different times of the day. The morning scent (probably from the Encyclia parent) and the night time scent (probably from the Brassavola parent) are nothing alike, though both are very pleasent! I would recommend this plant to anyone!

That's fabulous, Steve! LOVE that cross! The combination of color and shape are great. That's probably a relatively big grower, right?

It probably could be, though it is INCREDIBLY compact. There is basically no space between p-bulbs, so I would imagine it can stay manageable for a pretty long time. You can actually see in the third pic that all the leaves/bulbs are right on top of eachother. Its constantly cranking out new bulbs though. |

Beautiful color combination. Nice growing. I love the compactness and it's upright growth. Nice one Steve, thanks for the show.
