Some orchid blooms
 

I plan to add a Bulbo photo to this thread as soon the flower finishes opening so I did not want to specify an alliance.
This Dracula papillosa was bought last autumn during Andy's bare-root sale and I was a little worried as I could not find much information on it. It spent the winter in the warm, crowded Bulbo tank and has recently been moved to an equally warm tank that is less crowded. I was just pleased that it rooted and was sending out quite a bit of new growth but, then, it had to completely win me over with a bloom. :)

Very delicate! Nice job.

Nice! I like surprise blooms and Dracula have the fun faces. Congratulations and thanks for sharing!

Thank you. It is a fun orchid. I am really grateful that Andy has the bare-root sales. I would not have tried it, otherwise because I thought all of these needed cooler temperatures to at least bloom. His sales are a great way to encourage a person to try something new.

Ah, Draculas... I wish I could grow them!

Good work, Leafmite.:)

If you have an old five or ten-gallon aquarium, this one would probably grow well for you. It doesn't seem to need the cold conditions that most of them need.

I took a picture in February of one of my Dracula papillosa divisions in the middle of having many spikes sequentially blooming (one of the other divisions was also vigorously blooming, too but, due to the pattern of the vase, it was more difficult to see the flowers). The poor photo quality is why I don't advise one to grow this in a vase. The spikes come mostly from the sides of the pots and the roots grow down into the lava rock at the bottom of the vase so....

The next is a little noID phal (the only noID orchid currently in my collection) that I just love. It isn't usually my type but the flowers have somehow gotten me.

The third picture is the first bloom for my Potinara Hawaiian Prominence 'America' AM/AOS. It got stuck in the sheath but, except for the stem being bent, the flower turned out quite well, I believe. The fragrance is just like a Mr. Lincoln rose this time. :) This is actually a replacement for the first, another victim of my little Maltese-poodle. I read an article on used tea leaves as being a good fertilizer for passiflora and so I have been putting tea bags on top of all my orchid lava rock and they do seem to really like it. I drink quite a bit of tea. :)
The last is my creation from a recent Plantnite event that was a treat from my daughter. One of the succulents got a bit destroyed on the way home but if anyone can identify the two others and give advice on care, I would really appreciate it. Beyond aloe and cacti, I haven't really grown succulents.

Beautiful Catt!

Thanks!

Here is Dendrobium auriculatum which bloomed right after our orchid show earlier this month. It blooms frequently.
I forgot to get a picture of my Dendrobium prenticei when it was in bloom (it had an odd citrusy scent). It needed the macro lens and I kept putting it off until the flower finally finished. Opps.

I'm with Carol, that Pot. color is magnificent. And the smell double bonus. The Phal's not bad either.
