Trichoglottis Brachiata
This baby has quickly become one of my favorites.

Junebug,
This is a great specimen ...with so many blooms!
Don't you just love the little hairs on the lip?

Thanks everybody, and yes it is fragrant(more so in the a.m.). The scent reminds me of anise or a very mild licorice.

It blloms in the late summer early fall here in south Florida, USA. Good luck to you if you get one for your collection...it's definitely worth it!
