I personally like the oddballs. :) https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/17/africa/ugly-orchid-intl-scli-gbr-scn/index.html Susan

One of my Paph. fairrieanums gave me 2 flowers on a spike this year. Susan

One of my favorites: Love the "fried egg". Susan

Doing well for me this year. Love the markings on this species. Susan

I have a thing for blue Catts and think these cuties are just plain adorable. They smell just as sweet as they look. Susan

Still a small plant blooming for the first time. What I have found most interesting has been watching the color develop in the buds. The color starts out as spots and stripes that come together to form the solid red. Susan

First bloom. I got this cutie as a baby from Ernie about 2 years ago. I think I detected slight fragrance this morning. Susan

Somewhat on a whim I decided to get out of the house and take a road trip down to Portland and see the OOS show. It was good to see a couple STers there. I saw Pete (neo-guy) and Theresa (orchidmaven). Here are some of the lovely plants from Theresa's display (Hillsview Gardens) Nice Paph...

Love this one because the plant is fairly small and the fragrance is amazing. One or two flowers start filling up my house with fragrance within 5 minutes of the lights going off. Susan

Love these. Has a lovely lily-like fragrance. Susan

I picked this one up from Seattle Orchid in bud. It was the one that seemed to have the darkest color and the widest petals of the bunch they had in bud. Susan

The other day I was feeling nostalgic and started watching some old TV shows and stumbled across this old episode of MacGyver where the story line involves smuggling rare orchids along with heroin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6F8Z_e9eYE&feature=related At around 19 minutes in you will...

This one has been blooming well this year, but now the spike is starting to fade :(. Susan

Another one of my favorites ;). I even think the "charcoal briquette" fragrance is interesting. Susan

Not my usual type of orchid, but this one has been love at first sight. It has beautiful ruffly Phal-type foliage and the flowers have a wonderful cinnamon fragrance. Seems to be very easy to bloom and grow under Phal conditions so fits right in. Susan

This one is a Christmas present from my society and is quite tiny. I thought for sure it was going to be dead when I got back from my 2+ week vacation over the holidays. Instead it started blooming :). Susan

I helped organize the Northwest Orchid Society Fall Sale this weekend. Of course I had to help support the society and the vendors :D. Paph. superbiens Top one is Phal. pulcherrima v champornensis, bottom is Phal. instriptiosinensis This one was a freebie. Cute little Pot. Little...

I just love these little guys. Alba form in nearly full bloom Another close to alba with more yellow around callus and on lip Peloric form More typical form Susan

This little one was begging to be photographed. She blooms sequentially, so only tends to have 1-2 flowers in good condition at a time. Also wonderfully fragrant with the scent of roses and has been in constant bloom for about a year and a half. Susan

This is very clever. Check out the release date after you have explored everything. What will those crazy Canadians come up with next :poke:. http://www.pomegranatephone.com/ Susan
