The thread "Our Orchid blooms in February 2016" in Orchids forum

Today is March 1. and with that we start the new Bloom (and some Chat Smiling ) thread!
I will begin with my Ctt Rojo, which will be blooming all through March. (can Lc Fire Dance 'Patricia' be far behind ?)

Some of my Tolumnias, Genting something - I probably should have given them right away new tags, these here are all washed out.
I like them a lot, but keeping them free of Scale is a bit of a challenge. They don't take kindly to the All Seasons Horticultural Spray Oil. Any fan sprayed with this, will die off on me. So during the Winter, I simply check them often and remove any "white dot" by hand before they multiply.

And lastly my Jumellea comorensis - this one is big enough to bloom pretty much year around. It had a bit of die-back last Summer, but this Winter inside it added again a lot of new growth. The blooms smell cinnamony, very nice.
