Sarcochilus falcatus

[Stone]

Probably my favourite sarc species. Very fragrant (vanilla) and this one has a purple chin. It was wild collected many years ago.
Growing on a cork slab. Outside all year but probably a little too bright.
Temp extremes are 3C to 40C

Wow! It doesn't seem to mind the bright light at all!

Oooooo very, very pretty and vanilla is one of my favorite
fragrances. Niiiiice.

Congrats! :clap:

That's a great display - love the 'chin', too.

Nice, thanks for sharing. I will move my 1 Sarco closer to the light.

What an awesome specimen! This species is supposed to have one of the larger flowers for this genus but not a very flat shape. The fragrance must be a nice bonus.

Very nice, Mike!
This picture really lifts my mood.

Eric- has yours ever flowered? how long have you had it?
I think these plants need quite a bit of chilling to flower at all.

So amazing! Looks like it loves what it's getting. And you have a masdie in the background.

It is my favorite Sarco. species as well. Nicely done, mike.

It isn't a difficult species either....It grew very well for me on cork mount with medium light.

Nope. I am keeping the living room cooler at nights this year as they installed thermostats this summer.

I keep mine on a drafty eastern windowsill.

Glorious!

A wonderful display! I wonder why Sarcos are so seldom offered. They make great plants.
