My Beallara has decided to have blossoms right side up and upside down at same time!



BTW, the blemishes on the leaves are due to the hail storm we had this spring!

I want one of these. But intergenerics grow so big. And I don't think intergenerics like me. I have a Bllra tahoma glacier that's well....scratching along

Marco, if I didn't know better I'd sware you were going for the calendar!

Actually, Beallara are not that hard to grow. About same as Oncidium. If you get a chance, try one. Thhey're really neat.

more like the big prize at the end of the month . This and ST are the only boards i frequent the others are pretty much left in the dust with the sporadic visits here and there..

anyway

Well my bllra is not looking to well. I don't give it that much attention. I'm thinking about offering up for postage soon if the roots are ok. Just gonna give a bit more time otherwise in the garbage it is.

I've seen this one today at the window display of the flower shop. I've wanted to look at it but the shop was closed. They are really big (for my window sill), but very nice.

Yes they are big but very pretty. It's the large orchid in the lower left of this setup:



BTW, there are 2 new flower spikes forming on other bulbs!

Right side up and upside down on the same spike? (Picture is missing) Is this unusual? That's what I'm seeing here with my Bllra. Tropic Splendor 'Golden Gate" (BTW, thats a lot of typing is there a shorter name?).

Should I post a picture?

Sorry, that's an old post and I deleted the picture. It was a picture of a blossom normal and another upside down. Maybe I can find it and repost?
