A Nice Welcome Home

[Jerry Delaney]

My wife and I just returned home from a brief vacation. To see some of the flowers that opened while we were gone, check my album "A Nice Welcome Home".

...and what a welcome! I'd love to come home to that. You have some gems there, I especially like the Blc. Quest's Surprise. Very nice!

Welcome home indeed!!! Those are stunning!

The L. tenebrosa really cought my attention...that is one stellar plant and blooms! How old is that one, just out of curiosity?

Thanks for the post!

I honestly don't know David. I'm sure I have had it for a number of years since I have given numerous divisions away and I purchased it as a seedling. Right now it has 13 flowers and 2 buds and that isn't counting the 2 flowers that a @*$&%^ snail got before I found him (I can guarantee the snail won't do it again). It's in a 7" pot right now and I'm torn between going one more time (i.e. a 10") before dividing it. What do you think?

Jerry,
I love specimen sized plants, but don't have room for many...that would be my deciding factor...however, if I had room for this guy to be in a 10" pot, I'd go for it! It is an awesome plant!

I that tenebrosa!!! Sure is a wonderful welcome home, who wouldn't love to come home and get that kind of greeting !!

My tenebrosa already bloomed in early may- blooms lasted about two weeks?

That paph is pretty cool looking too!

Thank you for sharing and great growin'
