    Anyone remember JEM Orchids in FL? About 18 years ago, my partner, Mike visited Redland show and brought this philippinense as a gift. It has been through ups and downs and it looks like it is about to bloom. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Not sure if I call 'double pouches' as 'elegance', but it is so unique. I am keeping it. :D I wonder if it keeps producing double pouches every year. :confused:

    Vanda Roman Empress ( V. Kultana Gold x V. sanderiana alba)

    I got this plant about 3 years ago though ebay when I was an amature Vanda grower, not knowing the sanderiana requirement. Since then, it just grew. As I changed the light bulbs in my growing area October last year, I moved it to right under the light and I modified the watering/fertilizing...

    Premature? But I am so excited. - Gloria Naugle

    This is my Paph. Gloria Naugle, which I bought in bud 7 years ago. After blooming, it just grew. Nothing happened. As I was watering today, it looks like it finally decided to bloom for me. I am keeping my figures crossed.

    Ascda. Blue Tahourdin 'Bronze Grape'

    It finally bloomed. :rollhappy: It has tried to put out a spike or two for the last a year and half, but it never made it. I am happy to share the pictures. These pictures cannot really justify the color of the flower. It is literally 'bronzy purple.'
