Watering today and decided to share a picture. It's an odd mix to be blooming all at once, but no complaints here.

Very beautiful! Great job growing!

I do have one quick question though. I'm wondering why you are using the plastic tub for. Is it for humidity related, or to catch water run off? Just curious, no real reason, lol...

The tub transports the plant from where they live around the house to the sink and back. Saves transaction time. That's it.

A few more pics too.

Phrag Eric Young. It's a very easy sequential bloomer.

Now, why haven't I thought of that........ I carry all mine by twos in my hands. (I guess I could claim that doing the upstairs ones keeps me fit as I go up and down I don't know how many times!)

Lovely pics, the Phal colouring is very striking

The Paph (looks like it has sukhakulii in it) is spectacular.
