Phragmipedium Hanne Popow EYOF

[Tom499]

One of my favourite hybrids, of arguably my two favourite species. Hoping it will start clumping so I can get multiple spikes.

The fragrance is the only thing I can fault it on, I will try putting it in a sunnier spot and see if helps. Maybe its just my poor sense of smell but I've had nose touching it and I smell very little.

Roses or raspberries is how I would describe schlimii and its hybrid's fragrance.

It's been my experience that some people cannot detect the P. schlimii scent, but also, not all clones seem to be fragrant. Same goes for its hybrids.

That's interesting thanks. I'll no doubt be collecting more of these in the future as I love them so much, maybe I'll get some fragrant clones.
