Encyclia citrina and some others
Hi to all:
This is my Encyclia citrina is mounted upside up because at the moment I got it I didnt know it sould be upside down.
The Encyclia hanburii, Stanhopea tigrina, oncidium leucochilum and the Cattleya forbesii I bought them in my last trip to Veracruz a week ago. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Muchos saludos

Juan,
Nice orchids! Stan tigrina (and Stan tigrina var. nigroviolacea, that some researchers named as another species, Stan nigroviolacea) are my favourite mexican bauties! The Encyclias are very nice too! Congrats!

Congrats on your beauties!
Keep up the great growing job! 
My favorite is the Cattleya forbesii. Is it considered a mini or compact?  |

Great Euchile citrina! I've never seen such a nice and floriferous plant!
I think Cattleya forbesii (pronounced: forbes-ee-i, not "for-bess-ee-i" as most people say  ) would be considered a compact grower.

They are all beautiful but I just love the Encyclia citrinia and the Cattleya forbesii.

Thanks to all for the nice comments, we (Mexico) do have some very pretty orchids, do the forbesii is Southamerican and I agree with Mahon is a compact grower.

Echule citrina
Very nice plant! Good job.
This one has been sometimes difficult for me to bloom. It lives along side all my other Encyclias. Perhaps this is my problem? This pretty orchid is not an Encyclia - it's correct genus is Euchile.
