We came from here
The thread "Our Orchid blooms in August 2014 and some talk about Nomenclature" in
Orchids forum
Where did the Summer go? Here we are looking at September already!!!
But, the good thing is that lots of Orchids bloom in the Fall!!
Let me start the month with a couple of happy bloomers-
I took some pictures in the cage and had to take some inside to avoid badly wiggled blooms.
I use this Rajasthani fellow often when taking Orchid pictures, this cute wig of Angraecum distichum is most becoming?
I noticed the Pelatantheria insectifera starting to bloom
and Ascocentrum christensonianum has two small spikes
Neostylis Fuchs Ocean Spray smells just like Violets, so pretty.
There is a bunch of other stuff still going on in the cage:
Encyclia (and all it's other names) cochleata blooms year around
Phragmipedium Sorcerer's Apprentice
Dendrobium bigibbum v compactum puts on a nice show
And David Sander looks still fine
And - there is the Encyclia / other names brassavolae, it started blooming in August and will surely continue into the middle of Fall. The blooms are strongly scented in the evening, imagine the scent of Carnations.
