Default Say hello to my little friends?

Hi guys its about time I posted some pic's. Here are two of my favorite Bulbos graveolens & dearii and also my Wilsonara Kendrick Williams 'Featherhill' .Photos are a bit grainy as the old camera is not much chop.
Enjoy Craig

Thanks Susanne.
The plant is in a 15cm (6inch) cut down pot and is growing in a shag/perlite mix. Last year when picture was taken plant had 8 flowers.It looked briliant?

Ha ha Marco. I was going to say that.... Now I just have to be boring....
Nice pics!!
I like the Wilsonara Kendrick Williams 'Featherhill' lots!! I'm just so not a bulbo person..... my poor little bulbo.... I got him for $5 along with another tiny Dend - from someone on an orchid board who didn't want them. The bulbe came with pretty leaves on each bulb, but I kill the leaves off. It's not complete murder yet, since it's grown 3 growths but gosh, I just don't do well with bulbos!

As nice as Kendrick Williams is the spike should be twice as long as this. It was in the St Ives show here in Sydney last year if it had more flower it would have recieved a Champion. The spike is later (and larger) this year and will more than likley miss the show's Murphy's Law on Orchid Growing

Hi Tin,
the graveolens is a great plant, it does how ever have the unenviable ability to be able to attract flies. Some where at home I have a slide of a Blow Fly that actually got it self jammed between the lip & the column.
Stupid fly
