Default Slc. Wendy's Valentine 'June' AM/AOS

I have been growing this reddish for a while and finally it bloomed for me. The brilliant yellow in the lip makes the flower still more impressive!

I got this one for my Girlfriend at the New York International Orchid Show this past April. I really hope I can get one too some day. Very beautiful!!!

That yellow sure does POP out at you against the deep red!
Beauty!

You know, Dave, it was only when I forgot about it that it bloomed for me! I have two or three plants (the third in fact is a cut of this one I posted) and now I realize that they are growing strong without the need of close surveillance. Go figure, but some times it happens.
