Elaine, both Catts are nice but you are really doing well with that Vanda! She's a beauty.

Ursula, I love the form on Sacramento Rose and you have done very well with the Bulbo. I assume you are keeping it very wet.

Some new blooms from the OC. First up is Rby. Lime Cooler 'Krull Smith' (Rlc. Memoria Helen Brown x B. nodosa) that I bought a year or so ago in Apopka from Jim Krull. The flower is large but I haven't noticed a scent yet. The roots are consuming the plastic basket.

Next is Psychopsis. Mendenhall ' Hildos' (Pyp. Butterfly x Pyp. papilio). The plant has two spikes and one has branched into three heads. Nice large flower.

Finally, a little NOID Phal. that I picked up in Apopka for $5.

This Windows 10 is giving me a fit. I hope I learn it quickly.
