Jenn - I replied to the other thread
Sandy - I have it under T5 lights pretty much exclusively I'll measure the FCs later today/tomorrow, but I think I've been pushing this one with the light, as the leaves are tinged purple and lighter in color than other specimens I've seen. I do grow them in a tank with higher than average humidity, which may help in the light tolerance. I think you should definitely get one...fragrant, compact, doesn't need incredible light, beautiful...what's there not to like?

Ross - yes I read your post about your ang didieri : ) I did smell it in the evening when the buds were first opening, but I feel like the flowers hadn't fully developed or something...sniffed again this morning before the sun came out and it was absolutely fantastic - a real clean and crisp smell..like fresh laundry

bellini girl stole my words...shame on you. I'll say it anyway, what a cutie pie. I love them but they take more care than I can give in my g/h. Had a citarata for a couple years then finally died as I was out of town and didn't get enough water.

Sandy - I think it gets slightly more light than phals, but not by much. I *think* phal light should be sufficient though

Phal light should do it, but I wonder about humidity? Glad to hear yours is fragrant, Calvin.
