The colection so far

Wow... When I look back on my collection from not even a year ago, I realize that things have changed, a lot! I now have 32 plants (plus some that I just can't bring myself to pitch)and the case is overflowing. I have already moved all of my big Phals out and they are now on a window ledge that they seem to like. My dad and I have not yet tackled putting lights on the bottom shelf and so i am just using that for pots, fertilizer, and spray bottles. This time two years ago I got my firs orchid, a phal that I killed in a month, and this time last year I might of had 5 plants! I really want a green house! :)

B. Little Stars

I just got this little plant and decided to mount it. The question is, Which way to hang it?

jewel orchids

At the show my dad finally got two jewel orchids. Macodes Phtola and Ludisia Discolor v. Alba Jewel- Emerald Green Leaf.

:)

3 new Tolumnias

From top to bottom, Tolumnia Genting pink lady, Tolumnia Genting volcano, Tolumnia red berry. I think i'm hooked on these! They're so fun!

New orchids: Maxillaria sanguenea “Pololei”

I got several new orchids at this show and now my case is almost full and my wallet almost empty! Orchids are an expensive hobby, especially if your not old enough to work yet. This one has a really nice fragrance.

OSWP show!

The society show was awesome!!!!!! Pics by my friend Zoe.

oh where, oh where did my little bloom go...

I've had this plant for almost 6 months and this bloom opened soon after I got it. The plant must of wanted to make up for the lost buds because it has been blooming strongly since. At the same time it grew a huge new leaf and a lot of roots.
I love these flowers and was getting quite used to it being around when it finally dropped off. I will just have to wait until the next spike. :(

the first 2 are resent pics and the last one is from the summer, before I got the case.

Psygmorchis pusilla

I bought these on ebay, and 2 or 3 weeks after paying for them, like magic, the cuties show up still damp in a box that labels them "silk gloves."
