There once was a very mature Onc. Sharry Baby cousin (not sure if it was an actual Sharry Baby, or a plant of similar breeding) for sale at my OS last September, and my was it HUGE! The plant was about a foot and a half square, and the spike was about five feet tall with multiple branching. All together, with the branches, the infloresence was probably a four foot tall cone with a base two feet wide in circumference! I was just flabergasted by this gigantic plant, and to top it off, this was at my very first OS meeting, so up until then, I had only seen a handful of orchids in real life.

I can't even imagine the fragrance of something that size! Just a small Sharry Baby puts out quite a bit of scent!
