I on the other hand, indulged in a visit to the orchid show, and bought another baby to bring home. I think it's going to be a long time before my garden is "full" of orchids. (Jim has lots of room in his garden, too)
Cymbidium Silco Yellow, a fragrant, heat tolerant variety that the grower says will very likely bloom twice a year! It was the last one of this type that they had, so all the flowers are fully open already.
Here are some other pictures of beauties at the show. Sorry, I didn't get some names, but the first one Bl. Yellow Bird 'Fred' was my other favorite. Anybody guess what color I like?
This is a blooming example of the one my kids sent me as a gift, Phaiocalanthe Kryptonite 'Chariot of Fire'
A gorgeous grouping of a peach Catt registered by a local grower here , Palmer Orchids. They sold out of this one immediately, surprise, surprise!
This one is Pot. Shin Shang 'Diamond' and the next is Coe. Bella with such delicate pretty flowers.
The rest are anonymous, I'm afraid, but still fun to look at:
