Sunny Monday
 

Despite my Erwinia scourge, I do have some Phals in flower and thought you'd all enjoy some winter color.

Beautiful plants! I love to see a bench full of flowers!!

That last one is really nice!

beautiful and well grown! love the paphs!

re: erwinia, I can't see much evidence of fans in your GH, or they up at the other end?

congrats on the blooms, looks great!

Your orchids are beautiful! I love that greenhouse. Good growing.

Some Phals in bloom? That's actually a lot!! So how did your bout with Erwinia end? Did you lose many plants? I wasn't on internet much at the time so didn't follow your thread beyond the initial posts.

Lovely Paph (Pinocchio?), you took a really nice photo of it.

Camille, I lost probably close to 20 ~25 plants that either out and out rotted or got crown rot and unless I get very lucky and get some base keikis they are dead, too.


The last Paph is Paph chamberlainiaium

Yes, I have 3 fans at the other end and the heater has a fan of its own. the infection started last summer while the plants were outside.

You lost that many??? :shock: Wow, that's really really rough, it must have been beyond devastating. I guess they'll be summering elsewhere then, a repeat infection would not be fun. At least you still have all of these beautiful healthy Phals blooming for you :)

I like your Mondays better than mine.

Thanks for the Monday bloom show! Sorry to hear about your Erwinia problems, but you still have more Phals blooming in that picture than I have in my entire little collection. ;)
