Default My day trip

Insted of going to see The corpse flower that was scheduled to bloom today i went to a local greenhouse (good move since it won't bloom till tommorow)
and i Made a Beeline for the orchids i saw some nice cats
and smelled some other type of orchid i'm not familiar with


AND THEN i walked into a angly mess of roots only too look up and find

i was shocked apperntly this orchid is actually older than me the owner died and it's been with the greenhouse since.

Hi Jay,

Nice things to find hanging around, eh?! That second and third one is in the oncidium alliance...at least I think so.

Thanks for sharing your photos with us!

I sort of agree with David. I think the second and third look like a Brassia or oncidium cross to me. Maybe Miltassia or something?

Either way, they are beautiful. I really love that first one! It is so exotic looking!
