One of the few Catts I grow but mine hasn't bloomed yet.

Nice… Doesn’t the fragrance have a distinctive smell? I can always tell when I’m around one lol.

So far I've seen this pretty species not often in collections ..... very nice and waxy flowers

That is a lovely flower. Nice pic too.

 

[Hilmar]

the fragrance should be in the idea of citrus flower

I grew this species and flowered it several times. Guys, it smells like tangerines! Really cool!

Beautiful, Istvan!

Is there anything we can do to persuade you to publish not only your gorgeous flower pics, but also in toto photos of flower(s) and plant?!

I can't be sure of course, but I think my request could gather support from at least Rudolf, David and Leslie to mention but a few ST-Catt enthusiasts... and I'm certain there are many more out there, who would show their appreciation!

Thanks Leslie, that sounds much more exotic!

Thank you all.It has faint fragrance, probably this fly likes it, too.

Thank you, Istvan.... both on my own behalf (nice to get an impression of the BS of a plant, that I'm not familiar with) - and on the behalf of the fly in the next photo!
