Have you ever felt that none were going to bloom, and then several suprised you with a spike. Well these 3 (Ok, so the Phal Cranberry Queen came in spike!), finally bloomed out again for me
First is an Epi. Rioclarense
Phal NoID that my wife couldn't resist
Lastly is the Phal Cranberry Queen 'Regal' from Hausermann's

Oh yea, I feel like that with several at the moment, but of course they were not mature when I bought them either.

Great growing!

Well done! This hobby really does keep you on your toes, doesn't it?

The Cranberry is stunning.

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, the cranberry was a great find, as I was looking for a Venosa hybird anyway. Looks great and smells great.

A very nice group of flowers. All of my plants were in another persons care for two months last winter and I think they missed me because I don't have the shower of flowers that I usually get in the spring. In addition to that, rats got into the greenhouse while I was away and the damage was similar to grasshoppers. They seemed to favor the young tender growths. Consequently all of those new growths they ate contained my spring flowers.

Ahh, what bad luck. Maybe with a little TLC you can coax some summer/fall blooms if they continue to growh

Yeah the Cranberry steals the show in the living room right now. Great form, color, and scent. Gotta give props to Hausermann for sending that one in spike. It basically guaranteed I'd be back for more.
