A Few Flowers
It seems that every day when I go into the greenhouse there is something else blooming. Here are a few samples.
1. Laelia Anceps 'Amabalis'
2. Ctna. Memoria Henry Goldberg (Keith Roth x Why Not)
3. Sc. Crystelle Smith 'BK Orchids' (Sc. Beaufort x C. Loddigesii)

Nice ones, Jerry! The Laelia is awesome. I like the warm "glow" of yellow on the underside of that lip. It looks like the petals of the two flowers have a slightly different shape than each other - even on the same spike. Is this just an optical effect of the photo, or am I really seeing this?

I love the Laelia! And what intense rich coloring on the Ctna, it's a beauty! The 3rd is unique too, I've never seen a flower so pastel, yet with such a bold lip. Very nice!
