My orchid collection.

[snowflake311]

I am new to this site and kind of new to orchids. I killed my first Phalaenopsis years ago. A friend gave me an orchid in 2009. I almost killed it but then learned the ways and the plant is doing great blooms well for me.

So since learning how to care for orchids I slowly bought more. These past few month I bought a lot. went from 3 to 8 orchids. Here they are.

1 is my first white Phal it bloomed a few months ago and I have a spike on the way.

2 these are all 3 of my small Phals all have spikes starting. So excited because the one upper left I almost killed. It's been a year since it bloomed. I have 2 spikes on it now.

3 This is my Fave Phal its amazing and blooms like CRAZY!.

4. My poor Brassia spider orchid I abused this thing left it in the car when shopping on a hot day. Now it have ugly sunburn. BUT new growth!!!!

5 I got this Phal from a friend I think it is really neat. The roots on this plant were out of control I repotted it and wow I can not get over how many roots were smashed into a cup size pot.

6. This is my Fav it looks awesome and smells even better my heaven scent sweet baby . I thought this was the last orchid I would buy . HAHA.

7. sweet baby Flowers.

8. I bought this Miltonia or so the tag said it is. I bought it for $3.50 because it was not in bloom. I have no idea what this one looks like. I have 2 new growths on it so time will tell. This was a rescue. Next time I went to the store all the ones that were dieing.

9. Zygonisia Murasakikomachi my newest and I had mix feeling about it at first. I was not sure I was going to keep it. I like it more now. I was attracted to it because of the Leaves and its funny small round bulbs. It was also very healthy looking. It's going to test of my orchid growing skills I think.
