This beauty bloomed in 2022 on Christmas Day for me. She opened again with a second bloom just about 10 days ago. Fully opened about 7 days ago. It’s her second bloom. Looks more like a paph almum on steroids, but definitely has something to make it larger crossed! Hand in photos for size...

From when it was blooming! It had the nicest fragrance, too!

My Lady Isabelle is in bloom! 😍 First blooms ever! Now, if only my Roth would bloom simultaneously! Does the yellow stem mean this one is a female with spores…?

Hi all - hoping to pick the collective brains and expertise here. I have this phalaenopsis that I got from my local nursery. It isn’t a special species that I am aware of…when the blooms faded I left the spike because it had several nodes that appeared healthy and likely to re-spike. Sure...

I know it’s a long shot! I want to find a Paph Winston Churchill! I know OrchidWeb/Orchids Limited will have a bulldog type cross in the spring. I was hoping to find a true W. C. I have a rescue doggo that I named Winston Churchill and thought it would be fun to have a paph of the same name...

My “black” orchid in bloom! It’s quite a striking flower next to my green Longifolium. Quite a lovely contrast. Pictures really don’t do this flower justice. Sadly, this spike only had 4 blooms as the spike got damaged.

Hello! Just introducing myself! I’ve been lurking for a while but finally signed up. My Phrag. Longifolium has been blooming so I thought I’d post it along with my Prince Edward of York and a couple of my others! I have to admit, my Longifolium makes my heart go pitter pat! It’s my favorite of...
