Default November Blooms

Some plants that are currently in flower. The colour on all of them seems a bit washed out -- I guess that's the fault of the photographer! They are:

1. Blc. Hawaiian Leopard
2. Guarianthe bowringiana
3. Sc. Crystelle Smith 'Aileen' (first bloom)
4. Soph. coccinea 'Wildfire'

Shirley,

These guys are breathtaking! I've heard that there are beautiful flowers blooming in Vancouver...and the stories are an understatement!

Well done! Thanks for sharing these guys with us.

They look great! These pics made my day nicer, I'm getting tired of watching the snow fall.
