Hi brasfrag, That's beautiful:drool:
I have tried this 3 times. First one was near flowering size and then turned black, second one did the same, now I have 2 more ''Perfection x something'' doing well. What is the difference in culture between this and walkeriana?

 

[JeanLux]

Those are beauties!!!! I also tried once !! Jean

[SlipperFan]

I love it. Fragrant?

 

[brasphrag]

Yes it has a lot of fragrance specially in the morning.

To Stone:
C. nobilor need to be hanged in clay pots, at least here in Brazil.When new shoot is growing , a lot of water, then when pseudobulb get formed and inflated, no water. They need also some "cold" say +12ºC to induce flowering. Diferent from walkerianas they flower in our Spring time at nature. Walkerians flower in the Fall for us here.

I have line bred seedlings of this, and to my surprise no one seems interested in them in Australia.. Such a lovely species.
