Took a few pics. My Den glomerata (sulawesiense) has looked sick for a year in its tiny terracotta pot. It has yellow spots on leaves, sometimes turning pink. Just a mess. I decided it wasn't virus and kept it. Last week I noticed a bunch of big pale pale fat pink buds and now they opened, all pink and orange.

Paph Lynleigh Koopowitz is so beautiful that I took her outside for a shoot. It was a bit windy but she is such a star that the pics came out fine. Here she is posing between wind gusts. I have not bloomed many of my paphs Grumbling , but Lynleigh more than makes up for that. I hope she stays like this as long as the bud took to open.
