I haven't been posting much as I haven;pt had time to be on the computer, not to mention I was without one for over 2 weeks cause my hard drive went bad...and I haven't even taken any pictures of some of my blooms because after a while they just seem to get redundant!
But then I went out with my camera a couple of days ago and captured these:
A first time bloomer for me, and I almost missed it as you can probably tell from the fading top flowers:
This isn't technically a bloom yet, and it's my second attempt at a psychopsis (I murdered the first one in less than a year!), but if I'm looking at this right...it will have 4 blooms if they ever open up!
This is the orchid (it's actually 2) that lounged across my entire couch during the hurricane last year...I almost missed this one too, but that's only cause I hardly ever look 15 feet up into the ficus to see the top of it!
This is the gorgeous bulbo that Lindsey gave me...and it's the 3rd time it's bloomed. I've never seen a bulbo put out such a loooong bloom spike before with all these 'leaves'(?) along it...
I noticed this little gem, on the huge piece of tree that I mounted a bunch of different orchids to 2 or 3 years ago...they're all doing well, and this one has another inflo getting ready to open too!
But I was the most excited about this--- looks like Stan likes his new digs! A little later than usual, but considering I repotted him in the spring, I'm thrilled he didn't need to 'pout' for a year! 3 inflos, I can't wait!
Oh! And lilacs. I have to drive two hours to the mountains to see those...if they haven't secumed to the fires.
