Default April blooms

2. Oncidium alliance inter-generic NoID
- purchased at Trader Joe's spring last year
anyone have a possible ID for this one?

3 & 4. Dendrobium Aussie Chip
- purchased at Pacific Orchid Exposition from Gold Country Orchids March last year

5. Oda. Margarete Holm 'Alpine'
- had this one several years, don't remember where I got it - Summer Winds garden center perhaps. Took me a few years to rebloom it, but has bloomed every year since, and has the most buds ever this year - 20 on two spikes, tho I just noticed today that two buds are blasting on the larger, but less mature spike. I hope no more blast ...

6 & 7. Cymbidium No ID
- purchased at Costco late winter last year. Had 5 spikes this year, tho had a bug problem on one spike and most of the buds on that one blasted Still, I'm quite happy with it

10 & 11. Dendrobium atroviolaceum v. pygmy
- also from Gold Country Orchids, POE March last year
Got my first Latouria Dens last winter, and boy do I love them!
I'm noticing a couple of blackened leaf tips, and minor black spotting on this. I haven't worried much about the spotting as it hasn't spread, and the new growth is good. Is this something to be concerned about?

Yes, I have burned foliage on several plants *sigh*

Thanks for looking

I was thinking how healthy they all look. I don't think I have a single plant without some sort of spot or lesion.

aw thanks
I don't generally stress too much about spots - try to take a wait and watch attitude, and generally they are fine, but just thought I'd ask about the spots on the one den since they are so apparent in the pix lol. They don't seem to be a problem so far ...

That cymbidium is lovely! Obviously the bug weren't too big of a problem.

aw thanks Maureen! I like it a lot. It was strange how the bugs seemed to be on just the one spike ...
glad they were tho so I still got 4 spikes to enjoy
