Default 2020 bloomers

Probably my most reliable and prolific bloomer: Slc. Beau's Apricot Gem. Flowers 3-5 times a year but typically has two large blooming events with random flowering events interspersed. First to bloom of 6 formed buds. Lost 3-4 to bud blast from thips/thrips treatment. Lesson learned, dont bring cut flowers from the garden near your indoor orchids... Acquired from Fred Clarke 6 years ago the plant has 20+ pseudobulbs now. Probably should divide but I've been too lazy... and I just up-potted last summer.

down to 4 buds out of 10. if nothing goes wrong by next flush I think its possible to get an impressive show with the next flush of growth.
