Wink Stanhopea Alley

This was taken in the nursery that my wife works at and I call it Stanhopea alley because that's pretty much all there is in there (in the pic/alley) and as you can see on the left of the pic, I almost got soaked by the sprinkler dude, lol.



And here are some of the Aliens that live there.






Needless to say it's a very scary place, lol

Happy New Year!

As soon as my smartypants wife gets home, I will bug her to no end to answer your questions, besides that's what loving husbands do you know, bug wives to no end, lol.
But in all seriousness (uhuh, like that will ever happen in my life, lol) I will provide you with the names of them as soon as I am able.

Frdemetr, you are correct on the second one and likely correct on the others but she is not entirely sure about the last one though.
