Well, here's some pretties. The Alma Lee has given me a seccond flush of blooms, and the acid yellow cymbidium is nicely out.
The mini phals are still blooming like crazy, and the white one has been almost continuously in bloom for the last year.
The Angraecum sesquipedale has it's sole flower out now, but as yet I've not noticed any scent.

These two were picked up on chance, - the open one tho was hit by a fungus on its roots. I have hit it hard a couple of times with fungicide, but have yet to see any new roots. It's friend there has been putting roots out like crazy, and both have had had identical treatment since they came to me.

This was the reason I got the camera out. It's a Brass 'Shooting Star', and it really wasn't doing much last year, so I shifted it to the brighter side, and pretty soon it has put out a new shoot. Then yesterday, I glanced at it and realised that not only did it have THREE new shoots now, but there was also a spike showing.

and here's a nice promise from the Den farmerii. If you look closely there are two fat buds. These give a delightful spray of 'fried egg' blossoms.

They are all very nice, but the number of flowers on that white mini phal is amazing!

Thanks. Yeah. In terms of 'bang per buck' it's the best I have. There are three spikes on there, and the one on the right started flowering late summer, and STILL has unopened buds on it.
