One of my favorite encyclia species. Of course it is probably some other genus by now... This plant has about 15 flowers on it.

Something that came with the greenhouse. Vf. Virgil x Asctm curvifolium. Kind of cute...Has a lot of flowers not pictured. None of them are particularly consistent, but hey, it is a first bloom and I don't grow vandaceous stuff well.

Not entirely sure about this one, the tag is hard to read. I think it says Ascda Suk Sun Beauty. Not Su Fun Beauty, that is something else.... Pretty though.

Great photos. Always liked Encyclia mariea, how do you grow it?

Strictly mounted. Other than that, it doesn't seem to care. Bright light (it blooms better that way), but it will struggle along under lower light conditions.
