Some Christmas Blooms
It's been kind of a "crappy" fall. Events led me to get rid of about 400 plants. Still it's nice to know that there is still plenty to give me some blooms for Christmas!

Those are gorgeous. Sorry you had to give up so many, but at least you still have some wonderful flowers.

Nice xmas blooms! Love the red Phrag, it's gorgeous with all those spikes. Sorry you had to cull so many plants, that sucks. How many do you have left now?

Fortunately, Camille, I still have too many (if that is a possibility when it comes to orchids). Probably still have around 800 to 1,000 plants. Of those, probably 100 or so are seedlings just coming into bloom from crosses I made several years ago. Most of those will be culled out as I won't save more than 5 or 6 of the best from each cross. But, being the idiot that I am, I just ordered 6 new phrag seedlings. I think I need a good psychologist!! |

Great growing!
