first bloom post of 2011! cant believe i went almost 4 months without a bloom post

but here is my much awaited bloom post! and its not just one! its several!

these pics are from a week ago, most have more blooms open, ill post pics again when in full bloom.

Masd. angel tang. a second spike that leaf height




sedirea japonica, buds are alot bigger now and should open soon.


paph fairieanum x hsin citron. i cant remember the cultivars of both parents at the moment. fully open now with the second bloom opening



Noid white phal. blooms are a bit larger than a quarter




phal equestris 'three times a lady' x 'too blue' all three blooms in the pic are fading but one more is open and another bud bout to pop. if anyone wants a pod lemme know!




another phal noid. this one has about 5-6 blooms open now. got it about 1 year ago in bloom



phal noid. this monster is huge with 4.5" blooms. and it has 4 blooms open now. the petals are notched, partially perloric?

thanks everyone! im a proud guy today

katie- i got it at the longwood show. i got it with the mound ( im guessing that the method, it had the roots in a ball of sphag, it looked like from the outside ) i just stuck that in the pot with LECA on the bottom and some extra sphag on the corners to keep it tight. im just watering about 1x a week

I have more pics. But it's the same flower. I didn't think you would want to look at five pics of one flower
