I agree that medusae is an awesome plant!! It is one of those plants that MAKES you stop to look at it, even if you're not an OA (orchid addict)!!

I do love pretty much all my Bulbophyllums, I do remember when starting with orchids, I went to google and when I heard this species name I searched, opened the google page with pictures and thought I went to some "SPACE GARDENING" section - they all looked to me like they are out of the Earth plants - and that's how it started. Again, they are pretty much one of the cheaper plants I do have, but I love them, and Medusae is my #1 :-)

Bulbos are very interesting! So many unique flowers and scents!! Lol! I love the "space gardening" reference!

My first loves are the dens then catt alliance, esp. encyclias. However, I keep coming back to my Ascda. Dong Tarn 'Red'. Had it forever, and it just keeps on going and blooming.
Sorry Den. Autumn Lace x and Rhy, digbyana.

I had to look up your Ascda. Dong Tarn 'Red', I can see why you love it so much!! It is a gorgeous color.

Hands down....Brassavola nodosa!!


Neat and tidy grower...grows very well w/little fuss or muss...blooms multiple times a years...gorgeous white flowers that last a long time and that I will never find boring....and it smells AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING.

I love a lot of different orchids and would seriously have trouble eliminating most of the others but if I had to...yep, B nodosa would be the one that stays.

That's a great choice. Every time my mom comes over she comments on how interesting it is. I keep offering her a division, but I don't think she wants to get addicted. I'll keep offering though!
