sugarcane said: That IS an awesome save Gigi, great growing!
Elaine, isn't it just insane how long it takes some buds to open and others,
like your beautiful Cattleya cross literally emerge and open right before your eyes!
Ursula, what a fabulous start to the month....I can almost smell the glorious fragrance! Lovey dubby Lovey dubby Lovey dubby
My favorite is your Hoku Gem, which for some reason I can't grow here in Florida. Blinking I'm guessing it's a watering issue combined with growing outdoors.
I've got a bunch of things in bud now that I sprayed Orthene on everything...the thrips have arrived with a vengance. And a couple new photos to share.

Today is our clubs annual orchid auction, held at the University Botanical Garden in Tampa. Luckily they have a large tent as we are likely to see some rain...lots of rain! Wish me luck.


Best of luck Lindsey! I told some of my friends your group will be at USF today.
