New roth plant!

[lanthier]

So, while waiting for MY roth to develop and bloom, I decided to seek and purchase an in-bloom roth. Not so easy, or inexpensive, but I reached out and got great response. I ended up with a new child, an 8 year old roth grown from Japanese stock from flask. Here it is, all 36" (leafspan) or so. I will post more images when it blooms. In the last image, you can see how MY current roth is clearly a dwarf variety in contrast to my new one !

Very excited to meet these blooms. This is a sibbing of Giant Wings' GM/WOC x 'Perfection' FCC/AOS, GM/JOGA

In front of the ancient washer. It is far newer...

That has the potential to be great. I am looking forward to seeing this in flower.

Old washers are the best! Of course, a new budding Roth is even better!!!

Hmm, whence? It arrived yesterday !

Whence = from where! Not when

Ah ah ahhhhh. That would be from Orchid Inn here in the US.

Unfortunately Dresdner International Orchid Show is cancelled this year... I feel miserable browsing through Orchid Inn's shop...

Yes, as it was last year, too!

I've stopped looking at Sam's fine new webshop...it's simply too depressing!
