Growing on a chunk of lava rock. gets 1 squirt of water a day

Sadly the leaf tips on the left were in a direct beam of pretty intense LEDs and got a bit discolored

Pretty cute air!

That is so cute, well done!!! I've tried this orchid several times, and it usually ends up smelling like rot...

Very nice!
Mine doesn't seem to have a fragrance, either. The Schoenorchis scolopendria that I have, however, has a strong one. Maybe someone got them mixed up while naming them.

Such beautiful colours. I heard that some orchid flowers - eg. some dendrobium - produce scent fragrance when temperatures get above a certain level during the day. I wonder if it will be the case for this particular kind too.

Absolutely precious!

Interesting that you water it daily. I guess it dries out pretty fast on that rock. Any idea of the humidity around it? I've been eyeing this beauty, but the other things I want to keep like to be a bit wetter than this one.

I kept mine in the terrarium for a while and it did fine. I hung them at the top near the opening so they had a little extra air-flow.

Are you sure this is not a Schoenorchis tixieri? Some say that they are the same? But tixieri I believe blooms earlier (spring time) than fragrans (summer time) and tixieri has no fragrance.
Looks like it likes a squirt a day
