Ah... I see... it's not in the GT plant encyclopaedia. Roslyn - anyone can add a plant in. Just include as much detail as you're comfortable with. @Christos

@brightcolours the main characteristic for the cochleata is the twist petals. There is also a hybrid with the name Encyclia cochleata Green Hornet. That one doesn't have the twist petals. Both smells amazing.

Thanks @brightcolours Katie and @Christos Christos fairly new to this and didn't know what to do when I couldn't find in the encyclopaedia.
