Hi,
Some of you may have seen pictures of my new baby with the buds closed, so I thought I'd share a few pics now they're open. I admit, I love them to bits and, even though my poor little camera can't get the type of close ups that'll show off the detail, I hope you like

Very interesting orchid. Did I read somewhere that larger plants can stay in bloom for a very long time? Enjoy, the plant looks very happy there.

Thanks guys

@ Tucker, I don't know about plant size ~ bloom length correlations, but I look forward to testing it!

Congratualtions Jenyfleur. Arn't the gorgeous little things. One of mine still has two flowers open and I just love looking at it.
