Cirrhaea saccata

This Cirrhaea has a delicious citrus scent, which becomes intense at certain times of day

Now you're talking my language !!! Never seen one of those before, it's wonderful !!!
BTW, I found out that Cirrhaea is a synonym for Gongora. |
wow!!
|
I also never get to see this genus, though I've always thought Cirrhaea was different than Gongora. I'm surprised by how small the plant looks though. It seems somewhat smaller in stature than other Stanhopinae, which would be good for me because I have a much smaller growing space than before.

Hi Steve!
Yes, Cirrhaea plant looks like a "smaller Gongora". Cirrhaea loves lots of humidity in the air, but not in the roots (I don't use sphagnum moss in these orchids) |
Sweet.

Good growing Fred.
Not many people mention the genus Cirrhaea often, they're pretty cool plants. They stay much more compact than either Gongora or Stanhopea. |
I do look the green/yellow form of saccata. My one has green/bown flowers. Well done. Very long spike!
