They are wonderful, the last one reminds me of a Pansy in some ways, but far more beatiful

Hi Jerry,
I like them all...being in teh red is not always a bad thing!

To be just a little different...I'm going with the phrag as my favorite. Do you have a clearer photo of this one?

Thanks for posting!

Are the second two Miltonia?

I've just bought a NOID 'chid from my local garden center which has a label which says Miltonia but I wasn't sure it it was right as I don't trust even their genus level labelling.

Anyway I just clicked back on this thread and thought 'they look like mine'. Colours are different but it's very similar looking flower.

Actually the common name of miltonia/miltoniopsis is the Pansy Orchid! They do have a very strong ressemblance with those flowers.

I bought one earlier today, and when I looked up info on it I found out it was the Pansy Orchid. I can't believe I actually spotted that... I just can't see the Moth in the Moth Orchids

They are all beautiful but the Pansy Orchids with waterfalls are awesome.
