Very nice Tess. By the sounds of it, they are very fragrant? Are they easy to take care of? For a newbie let's say?

They are very fragrant at night Helen and very easy to take care of. It use to bloom under fluorescent lights....just 2 or 3 flowers but it bloomed all the same.
It's about 6 years old.....it was an ebay purchase Thank you all for the compliments

Same results here growing nodosa under fluorescent lights - faithful bloomer, just with less flowers.

Wow, those are monster plants you both have there! The blooms for some reason remind me of Angreacum sesquipidale. Hope I spelled that right.
