Lin, it's good to hear from you and all of those lovely orchids are a bonus. I really like the Encyclia.
Lindsey, nice family photo.
Last fall I found a pot with just dirt in in so I put it in the recycle pile and forgot about it. Yesterday, I needed a pot and my search turned up this surprise Bletilla straita 'Big Bob' coming up in that old pot.
The Sarcoglottis sceptrodes has opened and I would like to enter it in the weird orchid of the month contest.
Here is an update on the Cattleya maxima. It's one of my favorites.
This is my Dendrobium Nobile hybrid. Years ago I found this orchid on the orphan table at HD with a Cattleya tag on it. Check out the number of flowers on this plant.
I couldn't resist taking another shot of Psychopsis Mendenhall alba 'Yellow Butterfly'.
A second bloom has opened on the Bollopetalum Midnight Blue 'Cardinal's Roost'.
Bulbophyllum mandibulare has opened a second bloom.
Jim
