Nice!!

My Blc Liese Pigors x Drumbeat opened the first spike this season. I picked up in 2004 at a visit to Oak Hill Gardens 2 seedlings of this cross from their free grab boxes and silly me planted them together into Ecoweb. Now they are of course quite different and my not so favorite sibling is now in bloom. The "better one" (IMHO) always blooms a little later. I almost threw them away as I didn't like these blooms at all at first. But even this one is getting better/ produces blooms with better substance. The scent is very pretty!

The Dendrochilum bicallosum looks really nice right now ( as glumaceum is starting up too)

and look at this tiny thing! This is Vanda teretifolia with a surprise bloom, a tiny flower on a very small plant. ( from Ooi Leng Sun a couple of years ago)
