Default Having a great orchid day!

A few friends and I had plans to attend a new orchid meeting in the area today, which was wonderful!
My friend Linda (catlady, here on OB) picked me up and brought me a big gorgeous Lc Stephen Oliver Fouraker, in bloom! So fragrant!!! (I'll post a pic later).

Then we went to the meeting and on the way home, stopped at Duncan's Flora! I just LOVE his place!

I came home with:

Epi pseudoepidendrum
Den lichenastrum var prentecii
Broughtonia sanguinea var aurea
and finally got my
Cymbidiella rhodochila

Waiting for my Parkside order too!

I need help

I forgot to add one that Duncan gave us as a bonus plant!
I originally thought it was Habenaria radiata but have since found this:
Habenaria quinqueseta
Belize Botanic Gardens - Orchids - Habenaria

Very cute

I didn't get anything in bloom but I'll post pics of the plants later today
