My wife let me do a bit of photography yesterday, and these three were in the S room. I have several in bloom in the greenhouses, but can't get up on my 3-step ladder to retrieve them. That's perhaps a week away, after I have my 14-day, post-op consult on Wednesday. B. nodosa has retained a lot of the freckles and the sepals/petals has remained pastel, lime colored. Pamila has now been in bloom since before Christmas and ended up being 5.5" petal-to-petal and 6.5" dorsal sepal to lip fringe. She really has gotten fragrant. 'Nora' has now bloomed twice in 12 months, having bloomed in mid-summer.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
