I recieved this beauty yesterday, from a great friend, who was on a trip to Italy. It is a biofoliate catt, flowers about 4 inches, fragrant.
I hope Amey can shed some light on it's name

Thanks Eric! It has 5 opened flowers and 4 buds. It was on the road for 24 hours, so I hope I don't get bud blast.

Orchids can surprise you: I recently moved interstate and sent all my orchids in cartons by a courrier service, they stayed in the boxes for Four Days as I sent them before the week-end!! They were all wrapped in paper and completely deprived of light, to my surprise when I unpacked the boxes, all my phalaenopsis in spike still had their buds on them and still looking fresh! Well I have to wait, but they seem to be fine. I'll post pictures and some notes on my recent experience next time.
