That's a keeper, Bree. Very delicate and beautiful.

Jim

Very pretty, Bree.

That's pure floof, Bree.

Bpl. Golden Peacock 'Orange Beauty' is now fully open

as is Psychopsis Kailhii


Lc. Blazing Treat is just beginning to bloom,
there are 2 spikes with tons of buds on each!

They look so beautiful together, Lindsey!!! Lc. Blazing Treat is my fav!

Thanks Kathy, I wish I could take the credit for these blooms, but I
am hopeful that I can do a repeat down the road!

You will!!
They are gorgeous. I love the sideways Psychopsis shot, pretty Butterfly!

Great show Kathy, I am really drawn to Blc. Solar Flare 'Paradise', Bc. Punakea (C. Lulu x Bc. Maikai) and of course Paph. henryanum.

Bree, that is a beautiful floof.

Lindsey, love your 'Orange Beauty' and the Psychopsis are always get you attention.

Brassidium Shooting Star 'Maui Meteor' AM/AOS, I love the mild aroma of cloves emanating from this one.



Cattleya Choclate Drop in bright sun and then with natural light on a dull day.


Anyone need some snow?

Ken, that Brassidium Shooting Star 'Maui Meteor' AM/AOS is beautiful...reminds me
of the Radio City Rockets doing their famous kicks! ...and thank you for the generous
offer of snow, but I'll take a pass

Ken, we are so happy to see the snow slowly melting away around here, although your picture is certainly pretty.
C. Chocolate Drop is beautiful!

Ken, you have nearly as much snow as I do! Lovely Brassia nd that Chocolate Drop is so waxy!

kathy, those black-background pics are stunning...love that two-tone yellow-white catt.

I'm off to Calgary for a week with a stop by Paramount tomorrow!

Oncidium Nanboh Waltz has graced me with a third spike.



Odontocidium Jungle Monarch has is first flower open.



I'll end off with paphiopedilum venustum

I've been out in the yard all day cleaning up winter debris and getting ready for spring. The weather here for the past week has been superb with highs in the upper 70s and lows in the mid 50s. I think I'm going to come out of this winter in pretty good shape.

Lots of nice posts and it is hard to pick a favorite but I am very fond of Lindsey's Lc. Blazing Treat. Great form and color. Todd's paphiopedilum venustum is just georgeous and my paph envy is off the chart.

Ken, the second photo of Choclate Drop in natural light is great. What a difference it makes!

Jim

I am suddenly interested in Paph venustrum. For years I didn't like it but tastes can change. Oncidium Nanboh Waltz is so beautiful. The oncidiums are also looking awfully pretty!! I wonder if I could keep them alive this round....
Ken, what is your secret for Brassias? I was told to try keeping my Brassia verrucosa cool, so I'm doing that this winter. I have never been able to bloom it.

It snowed again today but it's blowing all over with 60 mph gusts today and tonight. Looks like you finally got snow, Todd & Ken. And lots of it, like us. Just took a while. We had January thaw on Friday! A month late. I just took a long nap which I never do! Vacation week from school is catch up time for my constant sleep deprivation, I guess! I've offered to clerk for the Amherst Orchid Society judging this Friday. Todd, have a super time at Paramount. I just love my loot from there despite the many extra shipping charges from Canada to the US.

My phals are opening. Neither of these have names. The white is a mini.

Interesting Phal shots!
And the Paph venustum is nice!
Jim, I would love to have your temps now. We got really spoiled the last two days with gorgeous warm sunshine, but today is not so nice, a chilly wind is howling all day.

Here are some, old some new.
My smaller Vanda David Gardner ( on left) and Ascda Peddler's Velvet Gold. The color on the Gold is slowly changing to include a touch of pink as the blooms are going.

Vanda Martha Ragan is opening a spike, the 1.picture shows a blustery sky.


Slc Little Hazel 'Red Jewel' has now both buds open


My Valentine's Orchid is a cutie with now most blooms open - Potinara Fairyland


I bought the small Potinara Love-Love 'Rich' last Winter and it has now three good spikes. It was sitting right under the glass and the orientation of the first blooms is straight up and crowded. I took the plant downstairs, I hope the other blooms will display better.


I like the Potinara Final Touch 'Mendenhall' very much. The relatively large flowers have a pleasing form and I love the peachy shade which changes in the light.


More blooms are open on the Oerstedella centradenia


Another small cluster on Dendrobium Hsinying Glomo
