I got my mother-in-law a dendrobium that looks exactly like your "pew pew pew". The tag reads Den. Remy Hartmann

Orchid Hybrid: Dendrobium Remy Hartmann | ORCHIDS.ORG

Hers is also in bloom and smells like black licorice.

this NoID phal (in spike, nice) with a leaf growing completely upside down and then flaring up to catch some sun.

my Siedenfedinea, just sprayed her down and thought the droplets looked like little eyes and it gave her a sort of alien look

oh, one more....this is pretty exciting for me as I have about 10 of these bulb orchids ( i can find the name somewhere but i think they are Chinese hardy?) and they all have been sending up leaves and then they disappear and i assumed it was some pest and they were doomed to purgatory but then...…!!!!!

Last one is probably Bletilla striata... mine are starting to come up too.

NICE, yes, thank you, Ma'am!

Ah, tropical. I live vicariously. Other than falling iguanas. That makes me sad.

Don’t be sad, they are fine.
In fact, they are flourishing and evolving and will take over the state, soon the county and inevitably, the entire temperate civilized world lol

Seriously, they are a big problem here and I don’t condone the needless killing of anything but cold is their only natural predator and the relative warming of the planet has let them evolve to be more cold tolerant allowing them to survive the cold and expand their territory north.

The state has declared that you can kill them any non-cruel way but that is a lot of wiggle room to someone with bad intentions

lol :D

Nice that humor can come through in text over the internet :)

Without timing, tone, and my hilarious facial expressions, you really only get a part of the message

Glad you found the tag for that Remy Hartmann. The moment you posted that photo I knew I had bought one (at Publix) before. That flower shape is pretty distinct and with the white border. I just had to search through some really old photos to find it. Now you need to let me know if it smells like black licorice as well!

P.S. I hate the smell of licorice in general which is why I gave it to my mother-in-law, lol
