    Masdevallia datura is a bolivian beauty. It is a cool to intermediate grower and smells really good:

    Really?!?! Can other people smell it? The fragrance is usually a lasting memory for people.

    Here is a new pic with all flowers. They are very long-lasting.

    I hope I can smell again next time mine blooms. The yellow of your sepals is quite nice.

    I hope I can smell again when mine blooms next year, those olfactory descriptions make me sad.

    The yellow of your sepals is quite nice.
