    Default Miltoniopsis NOID

    I was given this as a gift a few years back. It is wonderfully fragrant! It has 3 flowers open on one spike, four more flowers developing on a second spike. Any ideas on the identity of the plant?

    No idea what it is, but it is pretty. Don't you just love these? We seem to be in a very good part of the country to grow these too.

    Wow - two milt posts in one day! Boy, how I love these guys! Your's is a beauty, Christopher! And their smell is so fragrant (of nice things - not like those corpse-scented room fresherners Kev and Sue have been carrying on about.)

    Thanks for sharing!

    Plant is almost identical to 1 of my Milts.
    Milt Herralexandre.
    Beautiful blooms & scent.

    I found a picture of Herralexandre on the web and I agree - essentially identical! This plant was originally purchased through a local vendor so I have sent an email to see if they can provide any details on the identity. I'll let you know if they are able to give this plant a name!
