Bree you are certainly in anticipation!!! Can't wait to see them all!

Bree, good growing!
We will have a show!

My big anticipation is this huge Grammatophylum scriptum. Last year it had six spikes and streched 6 feet across. This year there are only four, but still...

Jim

Here is a look from the other direction. Note the 10 foot long epi hanging behind it on the right. On cold nights, I have to haul these two plus eighty more around the house into the garage. Also, outside of the screen, is a ponytail palm and out in the garden is a ribbon palm.

Jim

Jim, those are a couple of monsters!! Beats weightlifting at the gym?
In any case they look great and interesting Palms too!

Great giant plants!!!!

I just looked at the Grammatophylum and it has 50 plus blooms per spike. That will be over 200 blooms open at once in just a few days. Now that's anticipation.

Jim

Wow! Charge up those camera batteries!

Holy smokes!

Jim, Your Grammatophylum scriptum should put on a very impressive show. That's a lot of flowers on one plant. While looking up information about your Grammatophylum, I came acoss the Grammatophylum speciosum and found that it can grow to 2 tons. Now that would be a challenging thing to move.

I can still carry ir around to the garage but I stagger like a battered boxer. I see a wheelbarrow in my future. :>)

Jim

Gosh!

My Aerides houlettiana is just about ready!

Jim

Woweezowee!

with Kathy!

I think this Bc. Hoku Gem 'Freckles" HCC/AOS is having fun just teasing me. I want to see it!

No idea how far this one is from opening. Otr. Krull-Smith 'Riverbend' AM/AOS

Never seen this zygocolax flower, looks black though.

Susan, 'Freckles' is always a cutie at any stage!

Bree, interesting bloom. Have to google the colax part....

I found it as a cross between zygopetalum and colax (a synonym for pabstia). The spotting on the column is from the colax I think. Here's a pic. http://www.orchidspecies.com/p...
