It is the most fragrant Pleuros that I have. Too bad I can't describ it for you.

That is great! The fact that it smells good too is icing on the cake.

Stunning Pleuro, Tom! Really fabulously gorgeous. Quite elegant looking, and with a fragrance to boot! May I ask how large it is? Photos of this genus can be deceiving...

The plant is clumping and 3-4" tall. The individual flower is about 0.4-0.5" long.

Did you purchase this exotic beauty already mounted or did you mount it yourself?

I'm ready to give a try to mounting a few of my 'chids.... Just wondering!

I mounted(remounted) it after I got it. I don't remember if it was in pot or on mount when I got it.

Is the mottling on the leaf normal? Very pretty plant, gorgeous flowers. Congrats.
