Thank you for your attention
A lot of new things have bloomed and are blooming I’m getting old There is less and less time in the day I’ll start to slowly return to this forum

Glad to see you back! And waiting with eager anticipation to see what has been blooming for you!

I'll start slowly My new Cattleya aclandiae typo. In 2021 I purchased this seedling of Cattleya aclandiae semialba "cocobongo" x self.



In 3 years it grew to the point of flowering.



Wanting to find out what kind of variety it was, I picked the bud And saw an amazing purple.



Not Cocobongo, but a very beautiful type aclandiae.





Unfortunately, last year my old Cattleya aclandiae suddenly died, instantly. So I am very, very happy about this aclandiae.

Dendrobium canaliculatum. Taking a formal photo is difficult. It seemed to me that I had few blocks, but after counting it was over 80. And the quarter was tied to the canaliculatuma block, it was not just too lazy to get it, but terribly too lazy







Photo on the run. Not 20, but ±420 orchids they don’t leave time for anything else

That Den. canaliculatum is spectacular. No need for apologies... That is one happy plant! And the C. acalandiae glows. Definitely not semi-alba.

Yes, and this is for the better! So she shines with her noble purple!

Thanks a lot!
