    A relatively small plant, though not quite a mini, this sports heads of 3.25" wonderfully spotted flowers, but the big wow factor is the astonishingly strong, pleasantly sweet, heady fragrance, filling the greenhouse. Probably the most fragrant cattleya- chinghuaclose0713.jpg chinghuabunch0713.jpg type orchid I have grown.

    Agree with you on the fragrance :), but I got rid of mine because the presentation of the flowers was so crowded. Yours looks better than mine in that regard.
