My farmeri just opened up too. I didn't know they were scented. There is nothing in my books about that. What is the scent?
I'll need to go stick my nose in mine.  |

Hey are you sure it is farmeri?
It could be palpebrae which looks almost the same and is scented. I haven't found anything stating that farmeri is scented. Just wondering about it.

Melissa, I bought my farmeri, the pink form, at the Santa Barbara orchid show last month. It definitely has a very pleasant light scent, but the seller was saying it isn't (or shouldn't be) fragrant even as she smelled the flowers when I told her about the fragrance and other people said they smelled it, too  . It is labeled as Den. farmeri. Weird... |
