My latest office bloomers, BLC Windward Flare and LC Tropical Pointer 'Cheetah'. The BLC is a Lowe's bag baby purchased Spring of 2013 and the LC was purchased from a local vendor, Orchids For You, in August 2013. Both grew very well in my home under artificial light, but I never got them to bloom at home. So I took them to my office and sat them on the windowsill, gave them minimal care, hardly ever fertilised them and they responded by blooming. The BLC bloomed for me last year, but only gave me one flower. This is my first time blooming the LC.
The fragrance of both of them is amazing and fill my entire office from mid morning to late afternoon. When they started to spike, I looked forward to returning to work on Monday mornings after weekends at home to see how much the spikes had developed. I now look forward to work every day to enjoy their beauty and fragrance. My colleagues visit throughout the day to give them a sniff and I am not getting much work done.
First, BLC Windward Flare. With the white wall background, it was hard to get a decent picture, but I am too lazy to bring in my black background sheet.
And next, LC Tropical Pointer 'Cheetah'
