He always brings some Fredclarkeara 'after dark' with him when he speaks, so bring your cheque book.

Very nice Ramon. I really like the contrast of the dark flowers against the light green leaves.

Are you sure the red colour from last year isn't because of the black background?

Cheers.

100% sure the flowers was red also "outside" of that photo
I think it is more related with the amount of sun and higher temp last year...

love all the pics and i do agree that the bloom in 2011 looks better with the red lip but my vote goes for the last pic, the laughing bat. the colors are solid and the coloration of the lip suits the petal very nicely.
great blooms!!!
