Im', laughing, because we're hoping for the promised .10" to .50" of rain tomorrow night, but it has been cold (by our standards) here.... Down to 35 a couple of nights, with highs in the sixtys. We are such whimps!.

brrr
But it is toasty inside.... The Epidendrum parkinsonianum is opening 4 buds. For some reason it skipped blooming outside this Summer.
I moved it from its normal spot among the Vandas to the front so it is easier visible at walk-in and also "sniffable" at sundown. It smells heavenly, a clean soapy smell, perhaps in the direction of the lovely scent of Acidantheras. I like it a lot.

I'm trying to come up with a line of orchid accessories ,'Brassia Blankies', 'Cattlea Cozies', 'Stanhopea Snugglies' even something
to keep the tiny Toulumnia toasty warm until the greenhouse arrives. Meanwhile Bc. Maikai 'Spotted star is starting to open!

Geberara 'Snow Ballet' is finishing up, what a pretty flower!


and Blc. 'Copper Queen' is as bright as a new penny in this mornings sun.

Those look great together! Maybe you need a group shot.
about the accessories. They will be so happy in their greenhouse....soon, soon! Just keep reassuring them.

Very nice blooms and pictures, Lindsey. Will you move them into the greenhouse before the extension is complete.

Jim

Jim, I don't know about the extension...I'm getting ill waiting for the original glass house!

I love the Ascda Laski! The Miltonia puts out nicely for you and what's not to like on this pretty Vandofinetia!

Ohh, it opened!!
Kathy, the color on the Princess will deepen to a nice strong pink the next few days and I think you might like the scent also.

There are 2 more buds about to burst forth, too!

Beautiful show, Kathy. I think my favorite is Ascda Laski. Gorgeous color!

I'm still loving the Volcano Queen and the Laski but the Laelia lucasiana is soooo pretty!

I grow it cool in winter and that is where it blooms. Needs lots of light.
