Yes both. The intermedia is light and sweeter. The flaccida is strong and smells up the back 1/2 of the house. There are 3 or 4 inflorescences now on 2 plants.

Nice, thanks for sharing.
I have a big coelogyne that keeps growing but not blooming, any advice?

which species/hybrid is it? Some need a dry cooler rest for blooming

Lovely blooms. I really like the intermedia.

I don't know what it is but it's on Page #49 of my "Miscl. Stuff" thread.

I didnt see it either. As stated tho, a cooler/dryer winter rest may help. Otherwise, increasing light during growing season, reducing fertilizer in fall, and day-to-night temp changes (10 -15 degrees) will help. Like phals, many orchids are reluctant to bloom without a daily temp swing, and the winter cool down. But this can be hard to do indoors for some of us. Maybe a cooler spot near a window without getting sunburned.

Thanks. i moved it to the window and the new growths have slowed down; maybe it will try to bloom.
I don't know why you can't the photos it's post #1925 on 5/16/15 and can also be seen in post #1970 on 8/2/15.

 

[cnycharles]

You must have a different default for how many posts show up on a page. I also went to that page and it showed 2010 instead of 2015

 

[NYEric]

Yes, I'm probably at 50/page!

Ok found them...and holy crap. I leave for a bit and u start stocking up on all kinds of non-slippers, great variety btw. Hard to say what it is. I acquired some colognes labeled as lactea that look identical. But to add to confusion lactea is sometimes synonous w flaccida. But my flaccida has totally different pseudo bulbs. The "lactea" has been a slow bloomer for me as well but it has bloomed. Id need to dig around for photos. If it blooms someday we can tell. Saw another one u had (from park side ?) that looks like a big cologne speciosa. mine bloomed couple times a year. They r nice.

Thanks. Like I said, it has stopped throwing out new growths so maybe it will bloom sometime this year. I have 3-4 now and they are generally easy so this big one is the challenge.
