Anyway - I noticed my tiny Stelis ciliolata opening a bunch of teensy spikes.
Rhyncholaelia digbyana surprised me with a big fat bloom today, normally it blooms in late Spring for me - IF it blooms.
And a grouping of Sarcoglottis sceptrodes with its green scent of Cilantro.
Renanthera monachica
the cute Phragmipedium schlimii opens another bud.
and Ascofinetia Lionstar with a small blooming attempt this time of year.
