It's been a LOOONNNGG time!
 
Hi everyone! I feel like I've been hibernating for the past year, but honestly, I have just been so overwhelmed with work, family, and getting married, that I've finally found some room to breath and get back into the things I love: orchids!!

I was watering this morning, and somehow I had overlooked two of the most beautiful blooms I've had in a long time.

Blc. Imp "Kings Cup"

and

Vandafinettia Blaupunkt

Please enjoy! All I can say is this was such a pleasant sight, especially since we are supposed to get 9 inches of snow today! Yuck!!

I am so excited .. I also have a Blc. Imp 'Kings Cup'. I purchased it last year and has grown a couple more pseudobulbs :cheer:
Thanks for showing me what it will look like! It's a cutie .. :) and my first mini catt :D

I :love: your Neo! Is it fragrant ? :hmm

My neo is extremely fragrant, especially later in the afternoon. I love the color too, it just screams SPRING with that beautiful bright lavendar.

Regarding the mini catt...it is one of my favorites! I also purchased this last year and it has grown like a weed. The color is fantastic, and it seems so happy! Good luck with yours, and you'll have to post pics when it blooms!!

PS - Yours definitely looks mature enough to bloom sometime soon. Maybe this year?!

Dorothy 03-07-2008 02:21 PM

I hope so! :pray:
My pot is only 2.5 inches and I put the dime in from for size relation.
Yours looks so much bigger than mine :nod:
