Phragmipedium Acker's Berry

This is a first time bloomer. I am looking forward to seeing it mature.

The color is deeper in person. I need to break out the real camera. My phone does a decent job but it not doing justice to this one.

Nice one, Darlene! I am growing up some babies, but will have to wait a while.
BTW, I’ve been thinking about investing in a real camera, mostly for taking pics of my orchids. Any suggestions on what I really want, as far as features, lenses, strategies?

I have a couple that haven't bloomed yet. The white from the Candyland came through a bit, but the contrast is lost. Still it's a nice flower.

I'd love to see the flowers again in two or three seasons. I
think it will be spectacular.
