Two very different Prosthecheas, garciana and radiata
You have got to love these wonderful upside down clowns who seem to want to bloom themselves to death.

There is some nice diversity in the Prostheca world. Nice blooms, congrats!

Thanks guys, I like them both but I have to admit that I'm more partial to the garciana.
Chryss, I don't have an Euchile citrina and if I had a wish list it would be pretty high on the list.
Happy Thanksgiving

Prosthechea citrina was one of the parents of my PROSAVOLA Ethyle ! BTW, Euchile is a synonym, clarified at our BGOC meeting Nov. 12 when AOS judge Gordon Slaymaker gave us a talk on "The Idiosyncrasies of Naming in the Orchid World" !
