It's beautiful in Saskatoon! I don't think I could deal with the winters in Canada either! The arctic blasts that hit Wisconsin are bad enough! Thank goodness we're back to our 45F and soggy late fall, and grateful we didn't get buried in snow like they did in New York!! :rollhappy:

Ugghhh, snow on the ground here too, but the plus side (if there is one) is that we only had about 2" or so, and the wind hasn't done any damage! Phew!! :D

Snowing right now :(

Glad I don't live there! It's bad enough in WI. It's nearly summer in Australia....anyone want to go!?! I would in a heartbeat if I had the money!! :D

LOL! I only wish I was flying south for the winter! And SlipperFan I wish I could take you too!! Sorry, haven't figured how to multi-quote!! :poke:

30F and going down over night with bitter cold wind.....I'm ready to fly south for the winter. :mad:

That is a great display!

Thanks for the info. I might have to try it out soon! :)

About how long do heat packs last for?

Touche! It's a backwards world we live in!! ;) Absolutely beautiful!!

Just added it to my "orchids I want" list. Simply beautiful! ;)

That is true....I'm less tempted right now because it gets cold here at night now....though I have seen sites advertising the use of heat packs for shipping, but I don't know how good they are....yet! :wink:

I am addicted already! :drool: I really wish there was an Orchid greenhouse near me, but on the other hand, I think I'd be broke if there was!! :D

I do too! :) The coloring is so neat! Silly, but when it was first opening, it made me think of someone peeking out at the world!! :rollhappy:

Love the Phalaenopsis cornu cervi too!!

I'll try making it more sturdy with some media. I don't want to cause trauma to any roots since I'm still green and afraid I'll mess things up. My anniversary is tomorrow....I think a new orchid is just the right gift! :clap: Thanks everybody!! [/url]Paph spicerianum by SlipperNewbie, on...

A few pics from today 10/18/14. Being that it's my 1st slipper, wondering if the Paph spicerianum opens a little straighter or does the bloom keep some curve to it? How long do blooms generally last? Thanks! :wink: [/url]Paph spicerianum (2) by SlipperNewbie, on Flickr[/IMG] [/url]Paph...

Lovely blooms!

I count 4 previous spikes. How many years before you get multiple growths? One more question (for now).... I've been reading about the care (and quality to look for when buying) of Paphs. I came across the fact that you don't want the orchid to be wobbly or loose. Mine is, and I suspect it...

Thanks! I'm excited and it's been intriguing watching the bloom open over the last few days! :D
