Like pretty much all my orchids back in the day, the days of 'Tropical Plants & More', as soon as she had 6 or more pseudobulbs, she got divided. She now has those 6 leafed pseudobulb, but I'm just going to let her go. I hope for better blooming next year.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.

This little mini-phil was a Lowes rescue from the WINTER. Somewhere around February. It has been blooming non-stop since then. I made a pile of orchid bark between a rock and some bromeliads on the greenhouse floor and just stuck it down in there. It seems quite happy

Very nice, indeed, Gina. Is that one of the "Sogo's"?

Ken Sheila is stunning, the color contrast is so sharp.

Gina, that is one happy little Phal, it likes it down there.
