Beautiful color, Ken, and the little guys look adorable! Smiling

I had a little bit of an Orchid-related heart break here -
My new Monn. Millenium Magic 'Witchcraft' did really well during the Summer outside and I brought a lush plant inside (one growth just lost its leaves) with THREE FULL spikes. I mean really lots of buds. They all progressed nicely inside, everything looked good I thought. Until they started to shrivel or abort. Taking a close look I found two fat green and white Caterpillars munching the spikes!! I fed them to the Fish, at least they enjoyed them, yum!!
One spike was totally gone, the second had one bud leftover and the third had just a few left to tease me. At least those buds made it, and now a few weeks later they are open and full of drama!
