Beautiful
 

Beautiful, just beautiful. I want one! What do I ask for? Peggy Ruth Carpenter 'Morning Joy' What else and Where? I have Mtssa Aztec 'Nalo' which is my favorite out of 43. I have a picture in my collection and will try to add it here.

Just watch in big box stores for new displays and you should find one. Got mine in either Lowes or Home Depot (as I recall). But just check google for Beallara and watch what comes up. They are often available for sale via web. This is a very common multi-generic cross.

I got mine at Home depot and it had 10 flower spike on it. There was about 40 flowers on the whole plant. I hope I can get it to reflower again.

That's what this whole thing is about :-) I've had best luck with high light (just short of full sun - 45 degrees northern latitude) for growth period then when in spike move away from light a bit.

My Peggy Ruth Carpenter 'Morning Joy' has been in bloom since Oct 31, 2006 on multiple spikes.

Wow look at all the color changes within' these photo's :banana: Does this one have any scent?
Mary your orchid is wonderful :D

Yes Peggy Ruth has a mild spicy scent.

No Scent
 

This one does not have a scent but it makes up in looks. It stayed in bloom about three months. There were three spikes with at least 13 blooms.

WOW! thats almost 6 months straight! Thats pretty impressive. I don't think I've ever had an orchid in flower that long!:cheer: :cheer: :banana: :banana:

My Bllra has a mild spicy scent too. It does not fill the room like Cattleya's, but you can smell it is you walk by it.
