Gongora leucochila
 
First Gongora ever in bloom for me.

I am delighted! Very vibrant colours and an extremely strong nutmeg/vanilla smell!

I would be delighted also. Some of the gongora species have amazingly good fragrances. Congratulations on your wonderful blooms.

Very nice! How tall is the plant?

Around 40cm. It's pretty compact overall.

Beautiful! I love how the bold white is in contrast with the rest of the flower. The scent you describe puts that plant at the top of my want list.
