Some blooms

[FairyInTheFlowers]

I love having stuff in bloom!!! This Phal NoID has been in bloom for a few weeks or so, and it is so neat to be able to compare the colour of the older blooms to that of the new ones!

I spent a good amount of time trying to get a decent pictures of the flowers to catch the colour, but gave up and blamed it on the dumb point and shoot camera. This is a close to real colour that I got it.

Here is my cute little Onc. Gold Dust (yes, I have more than just Phals ) that has been in bloom for a few weeks also. It took nearly two months for the buds to open from the first sign of a spike. I did pollinate one flower with pollen from Onc. orynthorynchum (sp?) 'Lilac Soap' that I got from a friend, but it looks like it didn't work. This picture is a few days old, today, the whole capsule looks quite yellow.

Good job growing Cody, they all look very healthy. I'm very partial to the phals., so that's my favorite. I've not yet seen a pic. of your lindenii though. Is that still coming?

I think I made a thread where I was showing off my plants from Ten Shin, so it should be there. Of the four seedlings I got, lindenii is the only one doing much. I repotted it into clay (I'm planning ahead to the torrid summer heat in my closet), and it has a new leaf developing.
