I bought this very fragrant species last year from one of my favorite local vendors. She had it on her show table and it won a 3rd place ribbon. I divided and gave a piece to my friend Carol. It doesn't take this one long to develop from spike to flower. Thanks for looking!

That's a nice one Terri. I really like the stripes on the dorsal- very pronounced.

Thanks everyone for your nice comments!

I should point out that Psh. is the abbreviation for Prosthechea. Most of the plants in that genus are very fragrant. It's also a super easy one to grow and bloom, so would make a great beginner plant.

Hmmm. I thought Psh was short for Pshaw.
