Enjoy.

I have lots of pics, so I will post a few every day.

Erich, these first ones are of the cymbidiums and Dendrobiums. The top pic is my origional orchid, that I found next to a trash dumpster back in 1986.

Nice...

At a local restaurant, some numb nuts stole the orchids right off the patio. After he finished diner, he calmly shuttle the plants two at a time out to his car. The other patrons didnt even report him.

Nice pics Sys. Wife is big into Orchids too. They're all over the house, well, it seems that way.

Yours are much more "flowery" (is that even a word). She only has a couple of flowers on hers, yours are over the place. Probably has something to do with living in Pa.
 
I never understood the garden thing. After mother died 4 years ago my lady, sister and nephews went into her flower beds and replaced several of her dead plants with roses. I spent the next two years tending to my mother's garden. I am hooked now. I cannot wait to get out on the apartment and into a house so I can start a new one. Nice plants.

Heres some more

Brilliant orchids . I wish i could get mine looking as good. We just dont get the weather for them.
 
Laelia Anceps. This is a Mexcian orchid that grows very well in the coastal region of California.

I wish the ones I have potted did so well. I have 3 Plumeria and in 4 years they've only bloomed once!
 
I'll post some plumaria pics for you later on. Right now the ones n my garden are in the leaf growth phase and I will have the first blooms later in April.

These pics are of a Lycaste Aromatica. The blooms have a strong distinct smell of cinnamon.
