Slc. Cosmic Delight
Just thought that I would post a few pics of some first time bloomers for me. Here goes...
I'll post another when she is fully open.

Compactness
Yes, I would classify this one as a mini...I'll post a pic of the entire plant later this afternoon. (hopefully she's a bit more open now...i've not been out to the GH yet this am)

Dorothy...here's a pic of the whole plant; I should have used a ruler in the shot, though you can see my hand for a point of comparison. This is in a 2" pot.
Someone asked about fragrance...there is just a bit of clean almost lemony scent...we'll see if this intensifys or fades as the flower matures.

She's adorable!
Somehow, I know she's a "she"  |

I agree Susanne, definitely a 'she.' I love the name of this one and beautiful coloring.
The only orchids I ever refer to as 'he' are the Paphs 
Stonedragonfarms: Did you get this beauty online? Minis are another one of my weaknesses. I always have room for just one more....

Very nice! The color is very pleasant to the eyes as is the size and shape.
