Look What I Found Today!

[DweamGoiL]

I searched hi and lo, and behold:



Those mottled leaves make me swoon



I also discovered today I can no longer deny the fact that I have Orchid Fever:

"You can get off alcohol, drugs, women, food and cars, but once you're hooked on orchids you're finished. You never get off orchids ... never."

Gorgeous!!! I love the color of the pouch and all the spots do you know its name?

I would if the guy had packed the tag. It was in the pot at the store, but after he watered it and packed it for me, it was gone I didn't notice until I got home. I guess he thought it ruined the look of the plant since he tied it all nice for me.

I have to go near there on Monday to return a pot I purchased at a nearby store so I'll drop in and ask the guy for the tag or at least jot down the info on the tag.

And by the way, SlipperGirl...you are a bad influence

I do have a question for you. What is this thing in the back?

another bloom

[DweamGoiL]

I thought it was only one at a time with Paphs

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

It'll take a while before the bud blooms.

By then, the flower you have now may be on its way out.

[DweamGoiL]

Ahhhh! That makes perfect sense

There are sequential bloomers too

Score!!!! Very pretty.

It looks very similar to my Paph supersuck x raisin pie! Mine has a bit more pink on the upper lid and a lot less freckles, but I've seen that they can vary quite a bit. It will be interesting to see what the tag said, if you can locate it.
