Orchids around the Yard.

Thanks for the video! and beautiful blooms. It is very interesting to me that Stan wardii and jenischiana do well over a huge range of climate - in your tropical yard and my temperate one.

With S. jennischianna, it seems to come from an area with a pronounced dry season, with some sources online even saying it's necessary to get them to bloom. S. wardii is similar, though maybe to a lesser extent as I've seen it growing wild over a large range of elevations and climates. It's by far the most common of the Stanhopeas in Costa Rica.
