That's always a great feeling! Good job.

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

Thanks Ross. I'm dying to know what it will look like, as it was not in flower when given to me. I don't even have any idea what color it maybe. I think it might be red and yellow, but not sure as I may have killed that one...

So here's the open flowers today.

So does anyone have any idea what name this pretty should go by? Or if no one has any ideas, I may just call her Betty Mary after the two ladies I possibly got her from...

Congratulations. Way to grow!
In the close-up pic it looks like I see some purple on the lower bud. Am I just imagining it?

Oops, missed the later pics!

I guess I wasn't imagining the purple.

Whatever it is, it's one beautiful NOID catt.
