Default A few bloomers.

First up, Oncidium Rosy Sunset 'Pacific Satin'

When I bought it, it smelled like cupcakes and cat pee. This year, the musty cat pee scent is gone and it smells like straight up vanilla cupcakes. I love it! The blooms are huge this time, but there are fewer of them on the spike, only three flowers, but they are about the size of a quarter. Last year's blooms were half that size, but much more numerous. I am trying a new fert out this year, we'll see if I get more blooms on my plants as a result.



This is Phalaenopsis Lioulin Orange '2176'

I love this little guy. Reblooming off of a branch on an old spike, which I am fine with. Two blooms. Smells very lightly of a scent that reminds me of a citrusy house cleaner. Really vibrant orange color on this one, the lip is a bright pinky purple. Pic doesn't do it justice.



And finally, this one is not mine, but my daughter's. It's just a NOID Phal, but I love the color she got. When she purchased this plant, the flowers were a pink with a beige sort of color to them, this year, they've turned up with this cheerful and very soft yellow. Just gorgeous. If she'd let me, I'd steal this one from her.



Thanks for looking!

Thanks! I really like it. The spikes on this one are a branching type, so it may grow new branches off of this one. It'll be neat to see what it does!

She really does. I told her I'd take it if she didn't have room in her collection and she said, "I will always have room for this one, Mom." LOL!
