Orchids
Attempting to transmit the beauty of this passion of mine. In Spanish one word for orchid collector is quite fitting: "orquidiota" or "orchididiot" in English. I confess being one.

It's always nice to come back home, look in the orchid room and think there is nothing new, then upon closer inspection there is this flower and the other oe and by the time you stop counting there are at least six new blooms:



Top left, Cattelya Loddigessii from Brazil. I love this flower, but it was not a great grower in my orchid room, then two years ago I switched one to cork and it did great, now all of them are on cork and the difference is incredible, next week the "pilot" of that should flower and I will show it in detail. The one above was the second one I switched and it's still a small plant. On the right an Oncidium, I don't know where I got it or what it is but it is very nice and the picture came out really well. It is a long stem above a meter and a half with dozens of flowers.



Top left Blc. Ronald Hauserman, an old faithful one. On the right a Bl. Tokyo Magic, a small seedling growing like crazy.



On the left a Potinara Hoku Gem Freckles, I love how each flower can be so different. On the right a Blc. Richard Muller.

Two Lueddemmannianas from Venezuela which were a little wilted when I was able to take the pictures
