    A common one but very rewarding and smells like sunscreen. Here's a view from the top and from below.

    Great plant and interesting perspective when seen both from above and underneath. Gastrochilus is a nice genera to grow IMO. =)

    Thanks guys. I really like the way this one smells it reminds me of banana boat sunscreen, it's an uncanny resemblance.
