Florist find

A noid which I snapped up today from the florist that is on the ground floor of the building I live in :D

I will take more photos in the morning with better light, as the purple of the lip is more lavender/violet than pink.

I love that look!

How lucky are you!
Does it have a fragrance?

A few slightly better photos, but it's very overcast and dull today. You can see the plant is actually quite compact - blooms are more star-like and about 5-6cm across.

It actually does have a very slight fragrance! Like baby powder or soap.

Unfortunately, the camera in my phone is really struggling with that violet colour... oh well!

Edit: I removed the link because the grower has updated the links on their site so it no longer points to the same plant at all. In any event, this plant was produced by Phalaenova based in the Netherlands.

Absolutely gorgeous - what a great find!

Btw, the temps have gone up again, and the scent of this plant has developed.

It is heavenly, and has started to waft around the apartment.

Plus, it's happily growing more branches/buds from the initial spikes.

Very happy with this find.
