Nice pics everyone. I especially like the Encyclia ionocentra, Kathy.

Lots of rain and heat here but I have a few bloomers. I have twins on Lc George Baldwin X C. Trithena.

Another view. I really like this orchid as it is strong and healthy.

Aerides houlletiana is just about fully open. I wish I could post some of the wonderful aroma.

A last look at that pink vanda Nathaya Beauty. It may have faded a bit to purple but I think it held the pink pretty well.

I'll put in a bit of news here. Mom was released from the hospital and is resting back at her ALF. I'm just trying to keep her comfortable.

Laurel is down in Miami working hard on that house. If all goes as planned, I'll meet her and Steve in Apopka for another orchid blitz on Friday. I'm dusting off a pair of Kathy's buying shoes as I write. Good thing as I was having Apopka withdrawal symptoms.

Jim Thumbs up

Wish you could meet us there, Kathy. I want to see how a pro does it. With those prices, you just may explode.

I think it's a good thing I'm not living in Florida or my lanai would be filled with orchids. No one would be able to find the pool! Rolling on the floor laughing
