Default LOS - new additions

The plants that jumped into my bag before I could leave the London Orchid Show are:

3 Ascocentrums!!
Ascocentrum miniatum - IOSPE PHOTOS
Ascocentrum pumilum - IOSPE PHOTOS
Ascocentrum pusillum - IOSPE PHOTOS

Another Sedira japonica, and another Neofinetia falcata (Amami Island form) which looks very different to the one I already have.

A hybrid of Comparettia speciosa x Rodriguezia bracteata - in bud (hopefully they don't blast!) with a second growth just starting.

Hobby flasks of Den. cuthbertsonii and Sarcochilus ceceliae (IOSPE PHOTOS)

Those crazy leaping orchids!
You were lucky to get such great Ascos to jump into your bag
Excellent haul!
I look forward to seeing all your new babies in bloom one day

Dorothy, I must have had some special Asco bait to lure them in!!

I will try to get some pics tomorrow when its light out - only the Comp. x Rod. is in bud, though... 2 of the 3 Ascos are mounted - they look so cute! I just hope they are not hard to flower....

And here is the weird hybrid - not sure what to expect from this - fortunately, I shouldn't have to wait too long!

Comp. speciosa x Rod. bracteata

Thanks guys!

I also met a person at the show - we kept running into each other, as we were obviously looking at/for the same kinds of plants - who said they had some nice Neo divisions spare. I'm going to get a list and photos and see what they have. Nice to have found another Neo source!
