Thanks for replying. I have been tempted to buy a Little Stars
online, but I wanted to make sure it was fragrant. I have ordered the
Little Stars, imho citrus tree blossoms are intoxicating. I am in
Utah. If there are any orchid shows here, I am not aware of it. I
grow a few plants for my own pleasure. Their beauty has facinated me
for years. (I have the empty pots from the ones that I have killed
to prove it.) I just discovered that there are fragrant varieties. I
have a den. kingianum (gardinia) and neofinetia falcata on order and
am considering jumellea arachnanthe (gardinia) angraecum magdalenae,
(gardinia), and thrixspermum formosanum (heliotrope). Do you have any
comments on these species? I am looking for phal violacea bellina
Borneo (Zebrina) fragrant and phal hieroglyphica. These two phals
have seduced me. Unfortuneately, species plants are not as easily
found as hybrids.

If your in UT - Shows near you.
