Orchids sense hope like giant squid sense fear.

Hope must be abundant here, almost everything is blooming. (Is that an actual quote)? :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Wow, those are some great looking plants!!

Ugh. This.

I started looking at my orchids for our show that’s the first weekend in June. I don’t know if everything got thrown off by our brutal winter but all of my faithful late May-June bloomers are barely showing signs of spikes. Even my Maxillaria tenuifolia, that should have half of it’s blooms open by now like it has every other year, hasn’t even started to spike. I was really looking forward to showing that one, it’s more than doubled in size since last year :(

ES those are some beautiful pictures from the the show with absolutely wonderfully grown orchids. Thanks for sharing!
