Some New Year's bloomers

[Dollythehun]

Here's a few plants I have blooming. There's assorted phals and lots in spike besides.

Far right Epi radicans "Pinky." (7 spikes on her)
Middle Dialalia ''Snowflake Northland'
Left: Dialalia, the plant, Den. Convolutum, noid Phal in front, Oncidium Hula Halau 'Volcano Queen' and right (drumroll) Lc Mini Purple 'Blue Hawaii'.

I came very close to pitching the oncidium, ES talked me out of it. Leafmite, bless her walked me through the Blue Hawaii. Couldn't do it without you guys.

Forgive my misspelling, I'm watering and to lazy to go check.

Wow, they all look so good. My Blue Hawaii has never bloomed with that many blooms at once. Is that because I can't seem to keep it watered right.

There beautiful.

I don't know, I put it outside and it just took off! I had no clue it would even bloom and one spike is already passed. I will say, it is right under the lights, only inches away. I just water when it feels light. Leafmite told me this was a good pick.

She's the reason I got mine too. It has bloomed 3 or 4 times but only one bloom at a time. The poor thing was getting way to dry in Oct. and now my leaves are wilted. I need to re-pot it as it is coming over the side of the pot. And roots in my air are history. Even though I soak them when I water for a bit. I love the little guy.

Those are all very nice! I especially like your 'Volcano Queen.' I've got one of those, and I am not-so-patiently waiting for signs of a spike.

I almost threw it out. ES stopped me. I waited a year but, I got it as a tiny plant in cellophane and it's in an 8" pot in a year. Another Sharry Baby...huge.

Uh-oh, I didn't think they got huge. Mine is little now, I hope it doesn't grow too huge. I don't have the room for huge.
