After a week up in the tundra, the OC had some treats for me.

This is Guarianthe [Gur.] deckeri which was a species Cattleya the last time I posted her flowers. A wonderful plant in full bloom.


This Bsn. Maikai 'Louise' (B. nodosa x Gur. bowringiana) looks like a ribbon winner. If she only holds on until Tuesday, I'll find out.


My other Maikai, sans the 'Louise', isn't too far behind.


Mini Phalaenopsis [Phal.] lueddemanniana:


The brightest orchid in the lot is Ett. Volcano Trick (Ctt. Trick or Treat x Epi. stamfordianum).


With 4 blooming stems now, Pyp. Mendenhall 'Hildos' (Pyp. Butterfly x Pyp. papilio) is blooming.


A nice blooming spike on Bct. Roman Holiday (Ctt. Chocolate Drop x B. nodosa).


I just found that this nice hybrid has been registered and now has a name of its own: Enanthleya [Eny.] Burkhalter's Eva (Ctt. Eva x E. tampensis)


Here is Vanda Lou Sneary 'Bluebird' (V. falcata x Rhy. coelestis) which was a Neostylis the last time I looked.


A NOID mini Phal.


Here is Ctt. Haleahi Serenity (C. Valentine (1900) x Gur. bowringiana).


Chz. Haleahi Sunbow (Bsn. Maikai x Rby. Golden Tang). Interesting parents in that Golden Tang is pure yellow and Maikai has the spots.


A nice species Laelia [L.] rubescens, growing an a large piece of driftwood.


B. Little Stars (B. nodosa x B. subulifolia) is blooming for the second time this year.


Bc. Memoria Bernice Foster (Bc. Richard Mueller x B. subulifolia) simply will not stop blooming.


This is the nice Spathogolttis plicattthat Elaine gave me. I love it.


Here is a flashy one from Apopka: Rlc. Taiwan Queen (C. Moscombe x Rlc. George Angus).


And some hard cane Dendrobiums from the $3 box:



I think this last one is Kirchara Jairak Kiss 'Red Line Lip'


That's it for now.
