Orchids in Bloom: Phragmipedium Cardinale 'Birchwood' AM/AOS

Beautiful!

Thanks, Tucker.

That one is simply gorgeous!!!!!!!!!

Gorgeous flower! :love: And such a beautiful shot as well, it's so crisp and bright. I want a phrag or two, but blooming size plants are $$$$$.

I didn't know that you also had family also addicted to orchids, that's always nice to have someone close to you to share the hobby with. Are you the one that got your son into orchids?

Thanks, Orchidlvr, and Camille, he and my wife are both members with me of the local orchid society and he has a few orchids of his own and helps me with mine. He's 20 so he's going to school, working, and with friends - not quite the obsession it is with me. They are both avid hikers and photographers as well, so we do a lot together.

Wow.

Thanks, Kim.

Thanks, Paul. Nice to have a few things in bloom - we are housebound - have been for three days with the weather.
