Can anyone help ID this one?  Cant seem to find it in my books, it's cool(ish) growing from indochina, the one in the center, (not the dendrobium acinaciforme), thanks.

Is it highly scented?

It does have scent if you stick your nose next to it, then again, most of the flowers arent open properly yet, so maybe.

I was wondering if it was Ceologyne ochracea but that plant has a strong scent.

Thanks Richard, just looked it up but i think theyre a bit bigger than this plant, would have been nice if it was as i have a small coelogyne collection and a few more would be a nice addition.

Closest looking pic ive got so far is an eria, maybe eria sutepensis, but thats just a guess until i can get some confirmation.

I strongly encourage you to get a C. ochracea.  It's a fabulous plant that fills the greenhouse with the most amazing scent.  You can get it from most nurseries and it's one of the cheaper plants.  I know Burnham Nurseries sell it.
