A few photos of some of my spring/beg summer blooms
Hi here are a few photos of my spicies blooms @ the moment apart from the Haraella;
My Phal lobbii's second flowering spike since developping it's first spike in Nov 2008. (4 buds instead of 3 this time)
Phal equestris : Come back from near death! this plants whole root system rotted 2 years ago. This is mummy and I also have 2 keikies at least one of which I expect to flower too this year.
I also have an Equestris 'alba' with 2 spikes..seedling purchased in 2007.

They're both wonderful Nenella! Phal. lobbii is very cute peeking out over the leaves. Your equestris is very nice. It's amazing how many different variations there are in color. I never get tired of looking at them.

Thanks Guys, I'm just glad I managed to make the equestris, ''come back'" even though I did leave her in too much light for a couple days (direct sunlight- protected with a net curtain) so the 2 leaves on the left got a bit scorched. She also has a second spike growing & I can't wait to have 2 spikes with flowers.

Bravo Nenella!
the two are beauties
I've got two equestris, one of them blooms for the second year and now has three spikes in bloom (+ "extra spikes") it's a beautiful and generous orchid

Nice blooms! I have parishii, but I think I'm going to have to get lobbii too! It's cute.
Good job with the equestris, I could have never guessed that it was once near death. If you ever have an 'alba' keiki that you don't know what to do with, keep me in mind!
