February blooms - Den. senile - Orchid Board

I've read that the flowers are lemon-scented; if anyone has been to the flea market in the next town over, you'd agree that they are Maurice Flea Market scented.
Kind of a touchy plant to grow; I am never sure if it is pouting or if that is just it's 'way'.
Cheers - Nancy

I love the photo, it looks so artistic! Nice job.

Isn't this the Den with the hairy bulbs?

Way excellent! Still haven't been able to get mine to bloom. I've been trying a dormancy period this winter to see if that works.

Update - these flowers have just fallen - nearly two months on the plant, looking crisp and fresh right up until the end.
Not a lot of flowers, but I cannot complain about their lasting power. Regards - Nancy

p.s. yes, it is quite furry - both the pseudobulbs and the foliage.
