Aerides houlletiana

I bought two Aerides houlletianas by accident a few years ago as baby plants. They have both grown into the most healthy and trouble free plants, flowering every year. The flower is hard to photograph because the sprays as so pale in colour. This one is taken with the flash. The fragrance is so strong and very unusual - like a a sharp citrus or spice! This one is flowering for our hot Xmas season. With temps like 38 degrees only vandaceous are really happy....
