Catt aclandiae hybrid
I've been so busy this spring/summer that I've hardly been on OB, much less posted anything...  Though it was for a very good reason, I successfully defended my PhD (in plant science) at the end of June! 
But I still have my orchids, and am still taking photos of them as they bloom.
I've had this Catt aclandiae hybrid for 4 years or so now (found it at a garden center), and this is the first time that it's had a spike with so many blooms! Usually there are 3-4, but this year there are 7. The fragrance in the morning/mid-day is so strong that it's overwhelming to the point that I have to move it to another room. But I love this orchid, and want to get a Catt aclandiae!
