Nice flowers
I just planted two Ylang Ylang trees upwind of my house a month ago. They are already starting to grow. Hopefully it won't be long before they start blooming.
If I ever move back to the States it might just have to be to South Florida. I'd love to be closer to my family in Michigan but the cold weather is less fun every year and I'd miss the tropical plants.

WOW roberta- the pics are SOOO bad too- well done
yes it is
I will get the ID of 22 - it is a former bag babies from Better Gro - a lucky find
11 is a really fun plant, Dendrobium lamellatum- i think it is supposed to be a mini but it is not and it blooms a lot, seemingly whenever it wants

Schoenorchis juncifolia is a really cute plant. It is super-forgiving (it grows and blooms outside for me too, my climate is a lot colder especially in winter) Doesn't get particularly intimate with the mount, just has roots all over the place, gets longer and longer (but footprint stays small) I have two, the older one is about 2 2/1 feet/ 0.8 m long, started out as pretty much of a seedling. And blooms several times a year with flowers that look like miniature Wisteria.
