...And the seasons they go round and round...

Apologies to Joni Mitchell... such a perfect description.

One season of Catasetinae ends:

Fdk. After Dark 'Black Pearl' is fully open, will be done soon. It is Mo. Painted Desert x Ctsm. Donna Wise, which in turn is Ctsm. tenebrosum x Ctsm. Orchidglade.

Bridging the seasons:

Clo. Jumbo York which is Cl. Rebecca Northen 'Grapefruit Pink' x Ctsm. Orchidglade 'Sun Rise' has been open for about a week, nearing its peak.

The first of next season:

Cl. Rebecca Northen 'Grapefruit Pink' is just opening, this is the first of many spikes.

Not a leaf in sight, they're all in dormancy. But can spring be far away?

Just beautiful. And I think Queen Joni would be flattered!

Beautiful. It is 4'F currently so definitely hoping spring is not too far away....

Spring definitely feels far away in Colorado, with recent high temps of 2 degrees (F) and lows well into the negatives....I'm glad my plants are grown indoors!
