    Default LC Ken Battle - War of the Noses

    Lc Ken Battle 'Gold Crown' and my nun's orchid are blooming. The Nun's orchid has such a sweet, fragrant, lovely perfume, and Ken smells exactly like black pepper! Kind of makes you want to dance and eat at the same time. Name:  IMG_7217.jpg

    Very beautiful plants. Like your Lc Ken Battle very much. Is that tall spike a Phaius?

    Sorry so late to answer - yes, it is a phaius tankerville. She had five spikes (two feet tall!) last year but struggled a bit throught the winter this year.
