Default Phrag Besseae coming along nicely!
I bought this phrag last summer, and I believe this is my most expensive single orchid I've ever purchased (not that I spent big bucks, mind you, but more than I would normally). I've been babying it with distilled water and singing, cooing, and I've almost got the cartwheel down pat. This picture was taken today. I'm getting very excited! And of course, I will post a picture of the actual bloom as soon as it happens.....well, as soon after I pass out cigars, that is.

Looking good, Kiki. I know it's hard, but try not to hurt yourself, cartwheels can be dangerous!

Kiki, Move the coffee table away from the couch and you should have more room for the cartwheels when the time comes!
