Stanhopea Blooms
Another one of the greenhouse Stanhopea plants has begun to bloom. There are several more but none of their flowers have opened yet. They are very interesting and I would like to have a few plants of my own one day. The smell ranges from a milk chocolate to vanilla. It's very strong and fills the room.

I can't believe these plants have such amazing blooms! I'm missing all the cool stuff!
ReplyDeleteYou can drop by any time!
ReplyDeleteWe have a real big stanhopea oculata in the lobby of my research institute and you can still faintly smell "cake" from two hallways away on the other side of the building.
ReplyDeleteThey really are amazing plants! I'm surprised I didn't know about them before working in the greenhouses.
