Thanks all. Photography is another hobby of mine.

You will find tons of information here and very friendly members.

I'm actually down in Burleson. The orchids do better outside, but triple digit dry summers gets a bit brutal for them.

The other blooms are nice too. Good growing!

Good eye. It is indeed Lory Ann Paradise Dark Splash. I kept the bloom. Its dry and brownish, but is still fragrant. We picked it up (along with others) on a trip to the big island 3 years ago in a 2" pot. This was it's first blooming. Its one of the ones I'm considering mounting since it is crawling out of its current pot.
