Don't bother taking it off now, it's too late. :evil:

Thanks guys!

All are in my orchidarium with the exception of the paph. I can't tell you how much better my mini's are doing in there.

As far as I can tell, none are scented or I just haven't hit the time of day that they would have a scent. And I know the haraella is supposed to have a scent, but I haven't caught it.

Dorothy, this is my second dend laevifolium, the first one died because I kept it too dry. Give it moisture and humidity and you will love it. It will also flower from leafless bulbs so don't panic if it drops leaves.

I think the cattleya luteola is adorable. It is small, only 5" from base of bulb to tip of leaf. It's mounted on cork with spag and gets sprayed everyday. This came from Littlefrog and was not in spike at the time, but sent up a sheath pretty quickly. What a bonus to get three flowers.
