Very nice! Any fragrance?
None that I can tell.

Beautiful and cute. Do you give Pixey a dry rest?
Yes. I give it a dry winter rest between the old leaves falling and the new growth really getting going. This year the dry rest might have been too dry though. The pseudobulbs shriveled more that I like
 
She is throwing out even more blooms this year, but they are not going to open at once. Too bad. At least it will be an extended show.

This year the honeydew is spotting the flowers. I don't see insect activity, so it's coming from the buds themselves. Any thoughts/ideas on how to keep it from ruining the flowers? I tried gently spraying the buds like I do with my Laelia but that is not working?
