Haraella odorata bloomed! Updated! See last post.
So now I can finally post something in this section of the forum. I actually got an orchid to bloom for me. I feel like almost an expert. LOL.
Here are the pics.
And here it is in bloom, it was a long wait from the first signs of budding.

Very nice indeed, it looks like a pretty large flower compared to the size of the plant. From the 'odorata', how does it smell - good, bad??

Its supposed to smell like lemons, but I cant smell it yet. Maybe I need to get my nose checked up.

Unique and pretty! It may take a day or two for the odor to come through.

Here is an update on the flower. it has opened up a little more, and my coworkers say that my vivarium now has a faint smell of lemons. I cant smell it though.

update, the flower has died. It fell off about 2 hours after I took this pic.
But, as you can see, another one on its way!!!
