Smile NEW Orchid! Maxillaria Tenuifolia

Hi, everyone

I just got a new Maxillaria to add to the collection, it's still a baby so it will be a few years before it blooms I'm told. But that's ok, Its so cute! I can't wait to see what it does

thank you,

I got it from the annual Orchid show and sale, that happens once a year here. I'm told the blooms should smell like coconut.

If there is one maxillaria to get for your collection this is the one. The smell can be so powerful! Makes you hungry for something sweet...lol.

Hope it blooms for you in the near future.

Shann~
