Default Glptm in bloom and my twin Paphs are open
Hi All,
I have a couple new blooms to report. My Glptm Giant 'Rhein Moonlight' opened these past couple days and I had forgotton how big, beautiful, and fragrant they are! Has a spicey scent. I love this orchid. (Obviously not in the correct order) Also my Paph Gina Short 'White Queen' x phillippinense 'Diamond Lil' that I won at the Maine Orchid Society yankee swap in May has her second bloom. They are so adorable! I've never experienced a twin bloom on a paph, so I am so excited!
The third set of pics are of my Ceratostylis retisquama that I purchased young exactly a year ago. Now I have never seen this bloom, but it looks like she is ready to do something. What do you all think? Anyone got this one and have an idea about how close to blooming this cute little thing is? for looking!

That paph is a beautiful cross, Kiki! What does Glptm. stand for? Very interesting! And the Ceratostylis looks promising. Will look forward to pictures!

Thanks Shirley! Thanks everyone! Glptm stands for Galeottia x Zygopetelum x Laeliopsis. I'm pretty sure that's right, but not 100%.

Your blooms are beautiful Kiki! I love the color on your paph. So soft and pretty. Your Glptm. is so cool. And any orchid that has a great scent is a big winner in my book!
