Cattleyas in the greenhouse today.

Beautiful!

Someone at our OS brought in a tenebrosa at our last meeting. It must be the season for them.

I'm not a joiner either-would rather hang out with animals or plants,esp. orchids. But with joining a club you can choose when to go and leave the mtg. at your choosing. Usually mtgs are just once per month and I must say I've become a better grower because of it.

Wonderful blooms.

Loving that tenebrosa also- my first one was a rich copper like yours, and frankly I like it even better than the vinicolors. Does it have a clonal name, so it could be searched for?

Thank you.

Isn't it interesting how our tastes change along the way?

What a treat to see these in bloom in your own GH! Well done!
