I think the 'Orchidglade' is very fragrant, but it is a fall bloomer, so I can't remember for sure. Many of my orchids have become twice-a-year bloomers, but so far, the 'Orchidglade' only blooms yearly. I am hopeful.

These orchids don't have quite the mauve/lavender/fuchsia of the 'Orchidglade' (there are so many variations of these three color names, I never know what to call these colorations). My wife, who is the artist in the family, says the color is either lilac or ultramarine pink. Whatever the color is (I'll let more knowledgeable folks with an artist's eye name it), I love some the variations of this primary color. And I thought the nomenclature was confusing..... Whistling

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
