"Stuff" in bloom here this week -
Trichopilia Charles syn Suave Margins is always one of my favorites, I love the frilly blossoms.

I have to say I had no luck with my large plants of Lc Irene Finney 'Chicago' and Spring's Best', from Hausermann's. Both of them did well for a couple of years and then simply collapsed for no good reason. But I was able to save a tiny piece of the 'Chicago', and it is blooming. It will take years to reach the size of the original plant.

Lc Tropical Pointer 'Cheetah' opens a spike. This is a fairly small plant, manageable size.

Pleurothallis cypripedioides is a cute miniature. My plant took a bit of a break and starts flowering now. Fuzzy toilets?
