    Default Encyclia Cochleata - first ever bloom

    This is my baby plant I got 5 years ago. Just bloomed the other day with another yet to come!

    Why thank you! I'm very excited. I thought it might never bloom, then suddenly this! I hear they're fragrant. I haven't noticed a fragrance..do they smell more in the mornings? And the flower is much smaller than I would have thought, but it's gorgeous.
