Stunning red! This is one of my absolute favorite Oncidium alliance hybrids. I also love the fragrance!

Thank you Gage. This one is being rather stingy with the fragrance. I can't smell it yet but then that could be because of my sinuses being blocked  |

That's a lovely display! Mine is just finishing its bloom. I think the scent will develop in a few days if it hasn't already. I find it a bit strong!
What do you have yours potted in? It looks happy!

Lovely flowers....the colors are just captivating and you still have five to six buds yet to open....very nice photography and you presented your plant well with the white clean porcelain touch....the plant is happy and healthy by the looks of the bulb and foliage

Beautiful!! It's also one of my favorite Onc types, and I love the fragrance. Like Silken I also find it a bit strong sometimes, it really takes over the entire room. Give yours time, the scent takes about a week to develop entirely.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone  I thought that I must have done something wrong since I couldn't detect a fragrance although this morning the oldest one is smelling faintly of something rather pleasing. Hopefully it will become stronger as time goes on. |

This one is a winner! I couldn't believe my good fortune when I found one at a show this spring! Beauty, fragrance, ease of growing, long-lasting blooms, and blooms more than once per year! What a perfect orchid!
Your Nelly Isler already is looking beautiful! In a few days, the smell will be divine!
