More spike pics! Male

Well, it has really been a long time since I posted anything, so here I am to reassure you all that I am still alive, as well as my orchids!

Here is my Onc. Gold Dust that I mounted on epiweb.

And the spike with a lot of branches starting.


Finally my Jeweler's Gem is doing something with one of its sheaths!!!

And the whole plant.


My NoID Tolumnia with its nice sized spike!

Close up.


And here is my Tying Shin cross.

It looks like I am going to have two side branches! The second is just peeking out of the bract on the lower right side of the pic.

Lots of spikes!!
If you want to get the camera to focus and not have your thumb in the way, it's simple. Put your hand/thumb, press the shutter halfway to lock the focus, remove body part, then press the shutter the rest of the way.

That first Onc is tiny! Love it.

The second is also a very cute little girl.

Great growing for sure.
