Wow, Kathy, that's showing us how it's done! I just bought Brassavola cucullata and Carol did as well. We'll have to see who gets the first bloom.

Judging from the picture, I think Kathy will win this race. That does look like a possible spike. My cousin has one in bloom now, so I guess this is the season for it.

You're onto some very nice plants there, Lindsey. I'm looking forward to the photos too.

Laurel sent me a very nice Brassavola nodosa and it arrived today. I'm really in the brassavola business now. I have it hanging from the bottle palm.

My order from Marble Branch arrived today, and I am speechless at how huge and beautiful these plants are.
How perfectly and lovingly each was packed. I had asked on their website if they would notify me when a plant
would be available and Mark Reinke emailed me back saying that he would be happy to give it to me as a bonus
plant...when I opened the box there it was...along with another bonus plant Rlc. Little Toshie x Ctt. Gold Digger!
One of the plants Lc. Ken Battle 'Gold Crown' AM/AOS is in sheath Hurray!
