MJ, love your Trichoglottis Philippines. I'm going to look for one of those.

Ursula, I miss my Sansai Blue. It was my first Vanda and bloomed twice a year for me. Those were the days. The Caulocattleya Judy Congdon is another beauty.

Melissa, I don't see anyone putting your orchids to shame. You are posting some very nice flowers here. The Stanhopea is just wonderful. Also, I looked up your Queen Adelia and found it to now be called Lou. Queen Adelia just as you thought. I've never heard of that genera before. Pretty flower.

Glen, thanks for showing those Australian terrestrials. Quite a treat for us over here.

Ken, very nice color on your 'Sunlight Orange' Vanda. Also nice Rlc. Greenwich. Hilarious!

Elaine, where did you find that tiny Epi. magnolia? That's one of the smallest flowers I've seen.

Rainy day here with some serious downpours. I wish I could send some of this to Ted and Carol. By the way, what happened to Ted? Also Bree??

Now for an update on the OC plants. Mostly just new spikes on previous bloomers but nice nonetheless.

Look at the difference between the old and new flowers on Stlma. Kelly 'Lea'.

The second of my two Brassolaelia Memoria Bernice Foster orchids has taken up where the first left off.
