Why, yes. It's time for another exciting orchid update!
Mostly because I finally managed to take a picture of my little primary hybrid Dendrobium.
This is Dend. caronii X compactum. It blooms quite easily a couple times a year, but the shape and color of the flowers just don't excite me. I may try to sell it at the next orchid meeting. (And by saying that, I have doubtless ensured it will only bloom between meetings. :) Oh, the color on top is a bit more accurate. Not sure why the bottom one is bluer, but didn't feel like fiddling with it in photoshop.
Also blooming at biomass:
Phal Taisuco Bright, the little pink-and-white phal, Dend. Spring Frolic (the white, pink-tipped and green-centered lightly scented flowers abundant enough to cause the cane they're on to lean), and several clones of Mtdm Pupukea Sunset (as always).
In spike: Leptotes bicolor (which will hopefully *not* flower upside down this time), and Bulbo lobbii (never had this flower before. Looking forward to it. 3-4 inch scented, funky-shaped yellow flowers!)
