Maxillaria tenuifolia blooming

First bud on maxillaria opened today:



It is first time plant reblooming for me, so I am very proud of it even though I did not make any special effort for it to happen.



I like the look of the flower and the smell. There are few more buds on the plant so soon the room will be filled with coconut fragrance.

  1. Good for you! I almost killed mine last year with a dose of fertilizer granules. It is looking much better this year, but no blooms...yet.
