This little phal is one of my faves Blooms faithfully every year, and has a sweet scent to it as well

Nice. Mine's spiking up, though I suspect it'll be a couple of months before the flowers will open.

Agreed, the fragrance is lovely. It's what prompted me to buy mine. It was sitting in amongst dozens of mini phals at Lowes. As I walked past, there was one lonely white mini phal, and I had a hunch that it was the source of the sweet scent I was detecting. Sure enough, it was, so I bought it.

with me, it was the cute leaves at first, and when I got it home, the next morning, the sweet scent

What a cutie! Are the leaves truly spotted like that or is that from dust and misting interacting?

I got mine at Lowes as well and was thrilled that it had a name tag. Mine is in bloom now also but it has more of an antiseptic scent. Ah well, it's still nice to look at and always seems to set a lot of buds.
