Oh, now I get it!
 

I've seen a couple posts about people who suddenly realized their orchid was in bloom but never saw the signs until the flowers. Well, it finally happened to me. I will post pics when they open, but I have a Catt. that blasted it's last set of buds just before they opened, has 2 dry sheaths, and I just found 2 flowers about to open on a new growth. I never even got a sheath on that growth! Ah well, I will not complain because I am getting flowers!!!! :biggrin:

How wonderful! Just when you least expect it! Can't wait to see the pictures.

:groupwave::groupwave::groupwave:
woo hoo! what a great surprise!

Well, at least you noticed them before they popped open. About 33% of the time with my Catts they bloom from pbs with no sheaths. The first time it happened to me with a Potinara was when I was 14. I was so disappointed that it did not produce a flower that year and then that winter it started forming buds from that growth and my jaw dropped.

:waving catts. I'm sorry to say my few sheaths got burned in the sun when I didn't take in acct the sun is taking longer to get to the 12 noon dead zone..Moved the dead zone back a few feet and seem to be okey now. No soft black crapped out leaves or soggy crab flippers overnight anymore. Im jealous and have to go buy another plant now :)

keep it up!!! and Ill have one of everything!!



crab flippers = sheaths :)

I'm glad to be doing the enabling! Your pot of neos makes me want to go on a shopping spree. I just lost my neo and want to find another.

Alright, here are the picks of my recent blooms. The quality isn't good as I took them with my cell phone. Here is Slc. Jeweler's Art "Waiomao Plum" HCC/AOS
