Late April Blooms
 

The weather has finally stabilized and the chids are responding with growth, spikes, buds and blooms. :biggrin:

These are my most recent bloomers. Enjoy!

That vanda is ridiculous. Gotta love your setup though. how big is your house/room?

Thank you. :) That's actually a noid Ascoscenda and it's gotten rather large over the years. Right now it has 3 keikis. One of the keikis is mature and it's in spike too. OB members have suggested that it might be a Dong Tarn 'Robert'. It needs to be topped soon, but I'm waiting till the other keikis develop roots. The mother plant is top heavy so I fashioned a temporary panty hose sling to support her against high winds.

My shadehouse dimensions are 8' x 16' x 9'H and it has a slatted roof with no shade cloth.

That Ascoscenda is a beauty. With or without a name. Your growing area is wonderful. Nice job.

Great!

Very pretty! Love the Pink

gorgeous! love the fuzzy den! and the ascda especially! good growing!

Thanks guys. The pinkish one is a Den. aphyllum and the color in the photo is a bit deceptive. It's more of a pale lavender. The blooms on this one are so transparent and delicate and they don't last long.

I'm still working on a possible I.D. for the encyclia. It looks like a cordigera hybrid, possibly crossed with an alata.

Oh good grief, Junebug has got herself another noid. Here a noid, there a noid, everywhere a noid, noid.:faint: :biggrin:

Wow they're gorgeous. Especially the Vanda's and Asco's. They are my favourite.
