    A few Orchids that are blooming

    Here's a few of my orchids that are in bloom Masd. Kimballiana Masd. coccinea alba 'Golden Gate' HCC/AOS I got this a couple of years ago when Golden Gate Orchids was shutting down. It bloomed a couple of flowers last year, but this year it has put on quite a show. It has a little problem...

    Love this little Drac cordobae

    I think you are right. I got it from Ecuagenara and it does have the original tag in it with cordobae. I'm not sure about vespertillio, as mine has round corners. I think I will send a picture to Ecuagenara and ask them what they think it is. Thanks

    Masde's and a Lycaste

    It' isn't fragrant. I got my info about how to grow them from an article in AOS by Wilford B. Neptune, MD. He also refers to Steve Gettel. Both are excellent growers. I water once a week. I have 4 and they are all growing fine. I like these, because if you mess up the leaves, they eventually...

    Masde's and a Lycaste

    Masdevallia atropurpurea

    A couple of paphs

    I thot I had. I will have to take another picture. I have had my little exul for over 10 years, and it has pretty much bloomed every year.

    Got my first AOS Award

    Here's the photo from the AOS Photographer. It is much better. I don't have any idea about the parents. It was given to me when a friend shut down his greenhouse about 5 years ago. It has been a great bloomer and it loves being in SH.

    Didn't take to the show, but I sure think it is cute. It is a little over 1" across, and I had to stand on my head to get the picture. Wish I could grow more.
