Hmm, the termite stuff doesn't sound like fun....

Well, I have been watching the buds on my Gastrochilus acutifolius truly for some months now - finally they are are pretty much open after taking their sweet time.

Dendrobium moniliforme ( plain and simple) is looking a bit wild, but blooms on and off every so often. The flowers are nicely scented.

Brassavola Little Stars is starting to bloom, lots more spikes are in the works. It is scenting the living room nicely at sundown.

Barkeria melanocaulon is also opening nice spike. It will not be easy to get a whole-plant picture, the plant is tall with long roots and a tall spike.
