a few in bloom
1&2. No I.D. - perfumes the room with a lovely rose-like fragrance in the morning
3. Den. Mingle's Sapphire - only 1 spike at the moment, but a few others developing; has become nearly ever-blooming, but took off a couple of months in winter (tho this spike and another which aborted were growing over winter)
4&5. B. nodosa 'Cozette' 4N - I got this at an orchid show, in bud, a few weeks ago. Perfumes the room after dark
Thanks for looking

Thanks
Yes, I bought that one because it looked so familiar to me, and Little Mermaid was suggested by someone - It surely does look like it. Honestly, I don't remember that it was fragrant before! But, there it is, and I'm not complaining!

A wavy lip B. nodosa. Definitely on the wish list. I've already killed a Den like yours. Such a rewarding hobby. Great job.

Thanks Monika
Yes, the first one may very well be Little Mermaid - I got it a couple of years ago at TJ's, no i.d.
aww sorry you killed your Mingle's Sapphire - I've heard the same from a few other people. Mine seems to really like water, and with those thin canes, seems like it would be easy to underwater (I still frequently get crimped up growth, even knowing it's love of water, and thinking I am providing enough)

Great flowers and two of them fragrant. To my mind that is a huge bonus with any plant.

Thanks Ron! I do love fragrant ones as well! Funny thing is, I don't remember the noid as being fragrant, but it's the first re-bloom since I got it a couple of years ago.

Sure would be nice to have a winter blooming B. nodosa. Mine bloom during the warmer months only.
I too think that your noid is a Bc. Little Mermaid 'Janet'.
It looks just like my plant.
Here is a picture of mine. See what you think.
