I've been lucky:

In bloom & new spike,
1 Pahpiopedilum Moquettianum “Pinocchio” (med.)

Bloom:
1 Phalenopsis "Christmas NOID," (med.)
1 Phalenopsis "Alice Girl," (med.)
1 Phalenopsis "Brother Little Yellowboy," (med.)

Spike:
1 Phalenopsis (mini?) Dtps “Sweet Strawberry” (sm.)

The Christmas NOID Phal. was a gift from another orchid person- very cool. The other three Phals are all on second bloom sets and were half priced at Lowes after blooming. Like I said, been lucky.

Great growing guys. You should post this stuff down in the monthly status reports. Those are always fun to read through. Gives you an idea of what's happening around the world, and also gives you a place to report on your problem chids.

Holy Smokes Grandma M ! Wish that I could grow Paphs and Phrags. I am sure that it is lovely at your house with all of your pretty little slippers!
