I am still working towards keeping the leaves clean but the flowers make it well worth it.

Love it. The best of these types have an amazing scent. How’s yours?

Nice. Is it fragrant? Can you belive I posted that?

Well DJ is a very good grower. And these guys have always intrigued me. However in the “oven known as SW Florida” these guys would not do so well. I have always heard that they liked it cool and moist.
Recently I got suckered into trying a few. My Novelty Phalaenopsis had become just too boring. So I figured what temperatures they liked, what I could provide and thought that I could meet those conditions under lights.
Well in about 2 months or so, I have obtained about a dozen. So far they seemed to be very happy for the most part. Fragrances remind me of Lily Of The Valley, lilac and a fruity blend. All quite pleasant.
I look forward to continued success.

Thanks all! This lovely blooms about twice a year with 4-5 flowers per inflorescence. I love the flowers but could do without the fragrance. It's a strong sweet hyacinth, floral perfume like fragrance. Most of our guest love it. I am not a floral fragrance fan. Still I have 4 or 5 Zygos because I love the flowers.
