Lindsey, I just see it happening in my greenhouse on some blooms and I think I am causing it with my sprayer. Not all blooms spot, but the white ones are surely prone to that.

That's all my plants have had this year, what troopers they are, keeping on despite

I hate waking everyone up but I have a couple of floofy Catts blooming. Each has put out a pair of flowers tightly bunched which makes for strange but interesting pics.

The first is Lc Nippon 'Livinza'.

The lanai smells heavenly.

I am wide awake now!! Smiling YUM!!

My Cirrhopetalum Elizabeth Ann 'Buckleberry' is now pretty much in full bloom and since the first umbel is wilting while some others are still in the process of opening, it is time to post. I count 18 spikes, ( not +20 as originally counted)
I think this is the best this one has ever flowered for me! I am happy.

And there is the Coelogyne Golden Bug starting to bloom again.

Gongora armeniaca puts out some nice blooms- gotta love the little yellow birds.

I'm just back from choir practice where I took Chia Lin along just to show her off. What a fabulous fragrance.

Ursula, the Cirrhopetalum is a specimen plant for sure. It's just amazing! I love the flowers on the others as well. The Gongora bloom looks like a mini Stanhopea.
