First time blooming. Decent wintergreen-like scent.

These are wonderful in all regards.
Stanhopeas are one of the few plants at OZ that I won't sell. We don't have too many but the ones we have are truly awesome.

Some of my favorite. Will sadly have to wait until I have a greenhouse as the couple I have tried to keep alive in a condo failed.

Gorgeous flower!

Truly awesome how? Large specimen size? Rare species/variety? FCC quality flowers? Post pics when blooming.

Here is a good one. This one is about 19cm, flat with good color, so I think it rates. I also have tigrina alba which is guite beautiful. Sorry no pic.
