Lindsey, I love the backlit photo of the Epc Middleburg. The C. luddemannia is a great orchid. Good growing.

Oncidium croesus blooms from two small spikes.

Love that Caularthron!
At least my Leptotes isn't going to be too far behind you...it has 2 spikes in bud. Phiocalanthe however is just now starting to open, and is either going dormant or dying. Thumbs down

Your Phaiocalanthe is taking its time, I hope it's ok. Mine is starting to show new growth.

Aerangis fastuosa is a nice miniature, the leaves are ca. 2 inches long on my little plant.
Thumb of 2012-04-07/Ursula/be7220 Thumb of 2012-04-07/Ursula/09a46d

My Encyclia bractescens starts opening a bunch of nice spikes this month
Thumb of 2012-04-07/Ursula/19180f Thumb of 2012-04-07/Ursula/5cd0b2

Psychopsis Mendenhall 'Hildos' is still blooming from spikes which are several years old. Hopefully I might see some new growth this year on my plant too.
Thumb of 2012-04-07/Ursula/b9fb7c Thumb of 2012-04-07/Ursula/066498

And Lycaste Phoebe has only one bloom this time. Glare I think it went dormant too late in the season this Winter. And it is already starting to leaf out.

I'm just back from church. Man, that was a long service. The choir was talking about ordering a pizza. Hilarious! I am really smitten by your Encyclia, Ursula. A real beauty. I need to post an update of my big Encyclia as well. I've really taken a liking to them.

Beautiful new slippers, Bree. Congratulations!

Here is an update on my Encyclia cordigera, var. rosea:
Thumb of 2012-04-09/hawkarica/7ee065 Thumb of 2012-04-09/hawkarica/bbedc3

My Cattleya maxima now has 6 huge flowers open on a single spike with one bud remaining. Perhaps tomorrow. What a majestic plant!
Thumb of 2012-04-09/hawkarica/8654dc Thumb of 2012-04-09/hawkarica/309165

Opening last night was Epc. Rene Marques 'Tyler'.
