Flowering is starting to pick up as I finished repotting all the plants. Some I have posted recently, so instead I am posting the more novel (to this page) ones.
Above left, Cattleya Gaskelliana “Manhattan Blue” I got this seedling three years ago and it is the firts time it flowers, the color is exquisite, a true “coerulea”, but the shape in this first flowering is a little bent out of shape, particularly the middle sepal. Love the color though and hope the second time it will be better. On the right, Colmanara “Red Fantasy”, I used to have a few of these where I lived before, but they seem to like it less here because it is more humid. This is the perfect plant for a beginner, beautiful, easy to grow and flowers regularly.
Top left, Oncidium Gower Ramsey, the most common hybrid there is. On the right a Dendrobium with no label. I am no expert on these , have about three of them and all have dropped the labels. Oh well! Enjoy!
