Default Prosthechea citrina

First bloom for me, I got the plant a couple of years ago as a smallish backbulb division from a wild-collected plant. The fragrance is really outstanding in the morning and early afternoon.

Thanks Rosie! The color was much greener when it first opened (about a week before the photo was taken) but gradually changed to a lovely orangey-gold.

Thanks Maria! I'm a sucker for yellow or orange flowers and great fragrance is a nice bonus, too.
