Melanie, welcome!

The C. Hawaiian Wedding Song x Lc. Ann Akagi is a beauty, I love the color!

Jim, thanks and yes, I will be posting pictures of the David Sander!!
A big Congrats on the ribbon, well deserved! The plant looks awesome, with so many spikes too! Start a wall with your ribbons and display them proudly!!

I sure would.
Nice selection of pretty bloomers here

I don't think I have a favorite, I like every one of them! The 'Bow Wow' x is sweet and I am with Melanie, the color on the Stella is gorgeous!

Bulb. carunculatum 'M' X Bulb. carunculatum 'A-doribil' AM/AOS Looking real good, Jim.
Laelia alvaroana also real nice, just love it. Also like it when we get to see the plant
Welcome Melanie. Good folks here and you already know some of us.
Three blooms now on Mariposa Green River. Neofinetia falcata is suddenly filled with spikes and Epc. Middleburg "MAJ'
from Lindsey has a good spike going and I expect flowers before the weekend.
Busy times right now but I should get some pics this weekend

Showing up is 88% of life

The one constant in life is change

Ok, I have restrained myself since our Apopka trip in April, have not bought a single new baby. But this little Beall. jumped into my shopping cart at Trader Joe's today. There was another one that had a tag (but it wasn't as nice), that's how I know it's a Beallarra. but anyone recognize the variety?

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.
