Well, if Heather doesn't like I sure do. They are great! Mine could look like that if I just had more humidity! Great growing.

WOW!!! :drool:

ok I change my mind about a purely slipper forum!

 

[bwester]

I bet Heather is really a closet Miltonia lover, she just doesnt want to admit it.

 

[L I Jane]

I'm surprised she hasn't popped in to say Yuck!!!

 

[bwester]

give her a minute

 

[PHRAG]

I like it. Those spots are neon! Do you have any more to share Jane?

 

[Gideon]

Very pretty :clap: :clap: :clap:

For 'Phrag'
Here is another one that I'm fond of called Martin Orenstein 'Randi'.I used to have a lot more but over the years-they went 'kaput'. I have a couple more --other than the ones shown that I saved from the brink of extinction but they aren't in bloom now.

PHRAG
Also, for non growers of miltoniopsis the pattern of spots cascading down the lip suchas Bert Fields & others,is called the waterfall pattern.Here is another miltoniopsis called Robert Strauss that I've had for years which used to be in a 6" Pot--now back up to a 4" after it went down hill & has been blooming well again for the past few years.

Okay, Jane wanted a serious post. So in my most serious voice I will type.

Nice colors! Thanks for posting! oke:

Heather, you're not alone. I am not a fan of them either.

 

[adiaphane]

But, I can say that I do like the colors on these.

Thanks to you all-especially the non-Miltoniopsis lovers.You have given me a lot of laughs.I have a varied collection so I find an interest in all of them.I can't live with just one genre alone-- too boring for me!
