Ursula, Hallo!
I did keep the tag to the plant. But I don't think it helps me too much. I thought that the plant had been given to me with a tag but when I looked for it, it was not to be found. Well, tonight I recalled having put it in the kitchen drawer where my German food scale is kept. There it was and here is what is included there:.

Lila Mystique - Lilac Orchid
With a little bit of magic we turn a white orchid lilac!
New blooms will be gorgeous white!
Grown by Silver Vase Inc. Homestead, FL 33031
(that is all on the tag for the plant)

I looked tonight in the data base as you suggested or maybe it was virginiarose; anyway, I put a search in for White Moth Orchid and the first one that came up look exactly like mine, as best I can tell with my naked eye!

I looked again, and there sure is a spike on the plant and ten blooms that are very nice.
I wish that I had a good camera to be able to take a pic of it and post here so you could see just what it looks like. My DD comes Wednesday and I will ask her to bring her good camera and take a pictur for me. She is very good with a camera for me!

At the moment, I am thinking that it is exactly what you suggested: Phalaenopsis Orchid or White Moth Orchid, like I saw posted in the database here.

Thanks for your help. It is so appreciated. I REALLY enjoy looking at the pictures you all are able to post. It is very enjoyable for a "homebound" person" I can tell you for sure.

Wishing all my new neighbors a wonderful new week! Oma

Welcome to the forum, Oma!

To fill everyone in here - Oma and her daughter both have a Phalaenopsis injected with dye and there were some questions to as what kind of Orchid we have here and how to get it to bloom again.

Looking forwards to the pictures! It sounds like you are growing it well and a new spike is good news,

Btw I don't know if this also works on a PC - on a Mac you just have to click on the opened Thumbnail to see the next picture fully open. No need to click on the individual pictures.

I promised a picture of the Bc Binosa 'Tetraploid' - I had planted it some years ago into an Ecoweb basket and the roots grow right into the material. If you look closely you can see where the other spike snapped off.

and here is a twofer, Bc Binosa and my Bulbo equinolabium which is also in an Ecoweb basket. Regarding the Bulbo - I was glad to have the fan kicking in....what a stinker!

Another look at the Blc Dennis Kone 'Lakeview' and

C. Chocolate Drop 'Kodama'. Kodama still has a a couple buds to open. This picture is taken in bright sunshine = a bit lighter in color. And the roots start growing.

Doodaflatchies and fangs on Cirrhopetalum putidum

The Pelatantheria insectifera continues to produce little bugs in the axils along the stem

and Kathy's Cleisostoma comberi keeps on blooming, what a cutie!


And a picture from the Ramapo mountains which are about a week away from peak color.

Thanks for the tip, Ursula! Yes, I am on a PC and clicking on the picture moves to the next shot, as you said! There's also the "Image 1 of 10" with an arrow in the lower left corner that will take you along to the next picture.

Lovely show there - yes, the Chocolate Drop sure looks like David Kone, doesn't it. those glossy red petals!

Thanks for the full length shot of your beautiful Bc Binosa 'Tetraploid'...I want one!
I've had a rash of fresh floofs and blooms today...

Bc. Hawaiian Leopard 'Mei-Ling' AM/AOS and Pot. Edith North 'Danny Adams'

another fresh bloom on Psychopis and Bc. Island Charm 'OC'

oh i love Bc Binosa 'Tetraploid' and all the others as well Ursula and Lindsey.

Whatever weather relief we had going there for a couple of days is gone and we are back cooking eggs on the sidewalk. It's terribly hot today.

Wonderful show, Ursula and Lindsey. The Bc Binosa 'Tetraploid' is beautiful but my best in show is the Cirrhopetalum putidum with its doodaflatchies and fangs. You should never vote against something with doodaflatchies and fangs.

Lindsey, nice looking Psychopsis.

Opening this past weekend is Brassia Memoria Fritz Boedeker 'Witch Doctor'.


Brassavola nodosa and Bc. Little Stars are both blooming and perfuming the OC in the evenings.


There are two different dancing lady Oncidiums blooming out there:


C. bicolor 'Lines' AM/AOS X L. undulata has opened another spike. It still looks like a Schomburgkia to me.


A little more of Cattleya Summer Spot 'Carmela'.


Blc. Hawallan Leopard 'Mai Ling' is still looking good:


It is hard to go out into the OC without taking a picture of the perpetually blooming Lc George Baldwin X C. Trithena. This orchid continues to move up on my list of favorite Catts.


Jim

Thanks!

Lindsey, very nice, I love the Bc. Island Charm 'OC'!

Jim, they are all pretty, I do agree on your Lc George Baldwin X C. Trithena, it just doesn't quit! The C bicolor x is interesting! And 'Carmela' is no slouch either. I think I need a Dancing Lady!

A new flower on my just purchased Lc. Hua Yuan Angel. It is on the small side but I just love it.


Vanda Mae Sai X Vanda Kenji is just beginning to unfurl its first flower and I couldn't wait to show her off. More on this one as it developes.


Jim

That vanda is gorgeous!!!

Thanks, Apopka special.

Jim

Jim your Brassia Memoria Fritz Boedeker 'Witch Doctor has some serious voodoo magic going on there!

This 'Emerald Isle', HCC/AOS came into bloom Saturday. This plant also is in sheath. This was a division taken last January from a 5 yr old "mother" plant and the mother plant had a whopping 34 blooms. She stayed in bloom from early September until the middle of December. The flowers are approximately 6" in diameter and are wonderfully fragrant. The first two pics are of the division and the last three pics are of the mother plant, taken in Oct. 2011.

I have this divison as well as other divisions of the mother plant for sale. They are blooming size, either in flower and/or sheath, or have new growth not yet in sheath. I also have lots of other orchid plants for sale and they are all of the Cattleya Alliance. Some are blooming size (some in sheath) and some are smaller, 1-2 yr old plants not yet blooming size but much more reasonably priced. If interested, contact me by tree-mail and let me know what size plants you are interested in and perhaps what color(s) you might be looking for. I will then send pics and prices of those plants I have for sale. ATP members always receive a nice discount off my regular pricing.

They are sure gorgeous!I This wouldn't be the Blc Ports of Paradise 'Emerald Isle' FCC/AOS?

Yes, Ursula, the divisions are all Blc. Ports of Paradise 'Emerald Isle' FCC/AOS. I apologize for not understanding the question.

Ken

Two new orchids have opened today:

First is Epi. Lime Drop X Epi. schomburgkii

Jim

Ohh, I like them both!

I especially like that Epi!

volcano trick fireball is a awsome colour!
