Default Orchids going to the Show

all cleaned and dressed up. The stuartiania is going to open more blooms and should have enough to display. The jenkinsii also has a few more blooms that will open before friday evening. Wish them luck . They like going to shows.

I never have much for showing but I always bring back more for growing.


showing is a Saigon Pearl, Deperle, and an Avalon Pearl with a Pink Fred peeking


the Saigon Pearl (the big green one)will fool ya.. It will turn all white like the others after a few days of being opened. I like the green color too though

They're all beautiful! That's a really nice P. stuartiana. Is Paph. Saigon Pearl a good bloomer?

thanks you all!!

and yesTucker its a bloomer. It puts out a new growth you can almost count off the leaves 1 2 3, it pops a spike up. The guy who breeds these like lots of flowers and most all his hybrid paphs just seem to be prolific bloomers.
Lehua Orchids | Paphiopedilum, Masdevallia, Angraecum and Lycaste | Artists in Orchid Creation does not disappoint you with anything. Ill put a free plug in for Mr Wood .. All the paphs I currently have are his hybrids.

And weee them little jenkinsii flowers dont last but a few days and thank goodness 4 more popped up today just in time.

Even got one masdy bloom too!! 1 out of all the masdy's I have.1. Its too early for them. Got about 40 spikes and 1 flower. 1.

Sometime these plants come back in bad shape anyway. Broken spikes. knocked off leaves. You just sigh a little and carry on. So they look as good now as they ever will

Ill be sure to post pics of the show so you can all see everyone elses awesome flowers. I dont know how they do it yet but Im working on it.
