Default scary and fun! "New Milts"

I receive a small haul from clouds orchids this morning. I've always been super happy about pulling orchids out of those boxes, But NOT this morning!!!!

Talk about a freakish moment in time as I began unpack some of the orchids, You'll see why once you see the first photo.
I didn't know whether to get the gloves or RUN!
I've never seen fungus like this

Hats of to cloud orchids once again for bringing us/ME great quality of 'chids and abit of extra fun while unpacking

I was stunned - Never receive orchids like that, although I've got them in a plastic tube thingy.

Dorothy, In the photo's above -- Milt. yellow haze 'jean x lemon frill 'yellowston'
& Milt. pearl ono 'Iliwai' AM/AOS
Got a third one also ... Milt. Martin orenstein 'shirley P' also in bud.

will post pics once they bloom

OMG I love 'Shirley P' !!!
That is one that I would buy if I had better luck with them

Wow
A yellow milt .. they are very difficult to create so I have heard and read! Another great choice! One I would have made .. I have seen milts with some yellow but not like that !

And pearl ono is wild with that mask and face .. it even has eyes!

Much luck with them ..

I had one .. with many pseudobulbs and it was very root bound .. most of the pbs rotted and I have but one left.
I am hoping it takes .. (fingers crossed)
It hasn't been real humid here this year so far and I am just not set up to provide for it.
I am sure you will do better!
Good growing and great health to your milts!
