Default Bl Yellow Bird

This plant is just unbelieveable, as of now, it has 12 spikes of flowers ready to open. This cross, B. nodosa x BL Richard Mueller keeps right on growing. I think after this year, I am going to have to move it out of a pot and into a basket. I'll keep posting pics in the process of blooming

Here is an update on the Bl Yellow Bird. As you can see, the flower opens up darker. I was surprised the first bloom that there such a dark color.

Please do that 'cause I am always searching for new plants to try.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Yes, it is just grows like a weed. I think this year, I am going to have to move it out of that pot and maybe put it in a basket.
