Purchased in October from the local Orchid Society auction. Started spiking only a couple of days after I got it home, and is now almost in full splendor! YAY!

Thank You All
I'm so pleased with it, so glad I took the risk and bought it out of bloom!

Beautiful! Love the light color of the blooms. Does it have a fragrance?

Yes, though it's not a powerful fragrance so does not seem to have the distance potential that other plants may have. So it's a sniffing flower rather than a Aura of Scent bloom.

I can only describe the fragrance as similar to that of a Rose but without that Acid tang, with a hint of a Sherbert like soft sweetness.
