Maxillaria tenuifolia 'Yamada'(yellow) | Fragrant coconut orchid

So you want a coconut orchid or already have one. Regardless, you need a yellow one. The yellow varieties retain the incredible scent of their red sibling. It will remind you of summer days with its smell that I describe as like imo coconut sunscreen. These are really nice clumps of plants.

Not currently in bloom, but blooming size and should bloom in spring with proper growing conditions.

Grow this similarly to an Oncidium. They love a wood slatted basket, but they also need to be kept tight in their pot; don't overpot. Med to bright indirect light and water every 3-5 days just as the medium dries out, based on your environment's humidity.
