Thanks!
It's a fairly difficult scent to describe, I'd say.

Leaves are about 25-30 cm (10-12'') including the pseudobulbs.
Flower is about 8 cm (just over 3'') wide, and smelling faintly of white pepper, used dishcloth and wet dog.

Bulbophyllum lobbii var sulawesii

Only managed to get decent picture of one flower, there were twelve in total, but only three at the same time at most.

Magnification is good with reversed lenses, but depth-of-field is a wee bit crap (about 1,5 mm/0,06 inches).

Still, decent picture.

Come to Linköping, give me a call when you get here.
These are at the running track, not central perhaps, but it's not in the outskirts either.

Platanthera something

Found a fair handful of Platanthera a few days back, can't tell whether it's P. bifolia or chlorantha.
Cute either way, and smells fabulous.

I really hope they can live on undisturbed, but I...

I'm afraid that's as far as you'll get.
With no name tag, there's no way to know for certain.

Declared the poor sod dead last night. Bulbs shrivelled and softish, leaves bleached and mottled and starting to come loose. No sign of any roots, and rapidly fading life signs.

Tried reverse lens photography.

Phalaenopsis, most likely one of the complex hybrids (could contain any number of parents).
If there was no name specified on pot, plant or price tag, it most likely doesn't have one.

It's actually not that hard, it's mostly a hardware thing with this; you need some stuff to keep the camera absolutely still with these longer exposures.
