All very nice. Several species that I don't believe I've seen before. I particularly like the Dendrobium and the Amesiella. Are any of them fragrant?

All very nice, the cymbidium is beautiful though.

All beautiful, but this one
How big are plant and flowers?

It is quite big for section Jensoa Cyms. Leaves are about 30 cm or 12 inches long and flower size is about 6~7cm or 2.5 inches. As a comparison, the plant itself is similar in size as Cym. ensifolium. But the flower is very large for sect. Jensoa Cyms.

Here is flower compared to my hand.



Oh, by the way, the flower is mildly fragrant.

Both Den. sulcatum and Ames. philippinensis are supposed to be fragrant according to IOSPE, but I couldn't smell anything unfortunately.

Nicely done. I've never heard of these either, you've broadened my knowledge.

[sbrofio]

Thank you! I've a Cymbidium ensifolium var munronianum so I can easily compare the sizes. Yes those flowers are pretty big! Gotta get one of this too

[bellini girl]

Beautiful. The Leptotes will look awesome when all the blooms open. I'll just show yours to mine with its one bud😊 Good growing

Dendrobium moniliforme 'Meiho'





Cream-yellow form of venerable Den. moniliforme.
I don't know why, but I really like the creamy white color of this den.


Leptotes bicolor, in FULL BLOOM.





The flower is actually quite bigger and fuller than the picture of the nursery's catalog.

Nice plants. I love them all.
