Very Strong Scent!!
Hi there! Can any of you guys help me identify this plant?? The scent is extremely strong, like a ripe fruit or maybe ornge scented furniture polish!~
There are rows of spines on the lip and the edges of the lip! Thanks so much for your help!

It's a Phalaenopsis hybrid. I have seen some similar, but not with a fragrance. It's beautiful!

I have something similar that also doesn't have a tag. A relative bought it and when it was not in bloom, left it on my door step. I bloomed it again. I didn't care too much for the flower but the fragrance was unmatched. It was amazing. How large is your plant? What I have is a tiny plant.

The plant i have is between a mini and medium sized phals. I'll take a pic of three phals together so you can see the difference! |

Well look who's back! Hi Tash!  Where you been hiding?
Your Phal is very pretty. Judging by the color and the strong fragrance there is a very good chance it has venosa in it's breeding. |
