Aerides leeana, aka Aerides jarckiana

Endemic to the Philippines. Quite rare.
I think a very famous reference is actually showing the light pink-purplish form of Aerides odorata in its photo for this species.

I am very happy with this plant. As you can see, it has 9 spikes. Very light fragrance. Unfortunately, flowers at the base start drying up long before the ones at the apex of the spike open.

Obviously a very happy plant. And very nice photos. The individual blossoms are only a centimeter or so long?

[ntgerald]

And, you are correct. The individual blooms are only about a cm. across.

wow, how small is the plant as a whole? What are the conditions for its well being.
