Hello. I'm pretty new to keeping orchids. I bought this from Smith and Hawken, but it didn't have a name attached. It smells like Freesias. Please let me know if you know what it is. Thanks in advance

Angelo

Thanks...it does smell like freesias or lily of the valley. One of the flowers are open more now, and it does look like a pansy, so I guess you're right about the miltonia!

It's definitely a Miltoniopsis hybrid. They like cool conditions. Good luck with it.

Not a beginner plant, require cool condition, good light, good water quality, and good humidity; a fussy plant overall. I'd say the same thing, good luck keeping it.
