My orchids indoors have been happily blooming in Dec. but I have not been able to post about it, had to be away for almost a month in Dec, for my mom. As painful as it was for the bittersweet ending of Dec for me, mommy passed away, Dec 23..got to carry on and continue appreciating life. And finally now returning in Jan 2016, my lovely bloomers are still holding, so going to share them with everyone
My first successful attempt in growing from the Cattleya alliance:
Bc Little Mermaid 'Janet' really love the heavenly lilac scent so prominent during early mornings
Miltassia Shelob Tolkien- returns after sulking for a couple of years
Onc Dancing Lady - also a welcome return after really pouting for abt 4 years after I made this division
Onc Sharry Baby - this one has really been generous to me, it actually started to bloom in Thanksgiving and held on up to this Jan 2016. The chocolate scent so welcome! It is now slowly dropping its blooms..still so thankful for the wonderful show it gave me.
And lastly my ever faithful Wilsonara Hilda Plumtree 'Purple Wings', I finally got its preferred timing of blooming in late Fall to winter..and it certainly is doing a nice show giving me three flower spikes instead of just the usual one.
