This is Phrag. Grande growing in a 4.5-inch pot. A friend gave it to me for doing a program at the East TN Orchid Society. I like the nice dark color of the flowers. It seems relatively small for a Grande too - another plus. It will have six flowers this year.
The odd thing about this one is it smells - really bad. I'm not talking about having to stick your nose in the pouch and think you might smell something bad. It's detectable from five or six feet away. It smelled up the car going to the show this weekend. The best description is that it smells like a dirty, wet towel that has been laying around for a week. I think this odd smell just adds to the allure of this one. It smelled the same way last year too.
The dark color of the pouch makes wonder if it was made with warscewiczianum instead of regular caudatum, which would make this Phrag. Wössner Supergrande. Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
