I bought this plant for a TC for my project plant. It came with two bud bumps and they have now flowered. The first bloom is quite a bit bigger than the second bloom. They each have a bruise on one of their sepals but they are still beautiful! They smell wonderful too! This is one plant I wouldn't mind having a few of. I love this species! Everyone should have one! Thanks for looking!

Wow! I love this species, and yours is a happy plant! Look at those roots! I love little plants with big flowers!

Mine arrived with one bud bump. I've had it for perhaps six months. I think it's been in stasis mostly from moving between home and school. Hopefully now that I'm done with school and in one place for a while, it will come out of it and at least grow a little.

I'm going to have to have another go at this species.

Thanks guys! I just love this one!

Sonya- You should try another one! They don't take up much room!

Evan- I hope your plant blooms soon. I was lucky mine came with buds so far along. I heard the little bud bumps can take awhile and can stall. But even if the bud has been stalled for awhile they can start growing again. Once they get to a certain point they grow really fast! Good luck with yours!

Nice to see 2 blooms! I agree every one should have one. My ones bud opened a couple of days ago too. I'll post a photo.

I love white fragrant flowers...you have a couple of beautiful flowers...the roots and leaves are just healthy and perky...I must coax my plant to bloom this season...it is just forgotten in the corner...I must start havng a conversation with it...
