Ouch!!! I would have been soooo angry!
Isn't it the deep yellow one with dark red flaring? I saw one at an orchid show last summer, but didn't buy.

Default Both flowers open now!

The curly petals did straighten out, which makes me happy.
and the other bud just opened this morning.
I like this plant!

I think the older bloom is developing some scent, which is always a plus. The plant description said nothing about this plant being fragrant so I'm surprised!

My Toshie Aoki had very yellow petals and that beautiful violet lip. I haven't talked to the guy in 5 years. He's an as*#$^e and grumpy too.

Default Fragrance is there! :)

I am happy to report that this flower does have fragrance. It is not that strong so I have to get my nose right up to the flower but it smells very similar to Jonquil or Tazzeta narcissus.

Must smell so nice! Give it a few more days, the fragrance will probably get stronger.

You are so right, Camille. Now both flowers emit quite strong scent that I can smell it even when I'm not around the plant. Smells soooo nice!
