Oh, you lucky people. Places to purchase orchid plants, orchid shows to attend, and warm temps. What could be better. Our low here in NE Mississippi, Sunday morning, is supposed to be 26F!
These two plants are the Blc. 'Elmhurst'. The one on the right opened up approximately a week ago and is 7 1/2" in diameter. The one on the left opened up last night and (so far) is only 5" in diameter. Notice how the newly-opened flower petals/sepals are lime-colored but will change to pale-yellow as the flower matures. These are very fragrant flowers. Ken
