Well I ordered 3 before Thanksgiving, and 2 have bloomed. I'd say that's blooming size :) I would suggest most would be flowering this year that you would receive.

I've had fungus gnats a couple of times in my normal potting soils. It means you're keeping them too wet as a general rule.
Never seen it (maybe I'm lucky) in orchid with a bark mix or even in...

The Milt 'Sunset' looks beautiful and has a small flower spike about 2 weeks from opening.

Well since last years spike (my care) wasn't much, I didn't cut it off. It started branching heavily when a new spike emerged and I predict upwards of 20 flowers between the two branchers. This is...

We've had about 2 weeks of warmer (60s) weather since I posted and spikes have grown and buds are now comparable to what qbie posted. Yah, definitely absolutely flowers!

Vile practices (colored phals)

So it looks like my grocery store has gotten in some phals.
Unless I miss my guess the bottom row is natural colors and the entire top row (blues, purple, orange) is a dye job on a white orchid?

But I guess given production methods, it is what it is.

Not at all, the more we see, the more we learn (all of us).
I will be seeing flowers on my kingianum but maybe not till late March (it's been cold through Dec-Jan here, slowing things down).
