    Congrats, Mazlan. Lovely waxy blooms. Yours has good shape too. Was your plant growing wild in the Cameron Highlands?

    I think so because I bought it from the 'Orang Asli' (indigenous people) at the road side while coming down from the Cameron Highlands. Thanks for your comments.

    I love the shape of this orchids bloom. Very pretty. It looks like it would be fragrant also. Is it?

    Cheers,

    Yes, it is slightly fragrance, not too strong. Thanks for your comments BD and others.
