| I can't get a photo that does justice to the colour. It's deeper and much more vibrant in real life and has been flowering for a couple weeks now. | |

I'll need to do a head count. Some haven't flowered yet. I'm just starting to branch out a bit with orchids. | |

I've got a few of those I reckon it's a whole new species orchids and yours are beauties. I don't seem to have a lot of success with them... which doesn't explain why I keep buying more They grow alright for me just don't flower. My father used to have quite a collection but I don't know what happened to it after he remarried and moved. | |

| Bubba . you have a lovely collection there with a variety of Genera. When my mother came to live in the far north many moons ago , she brought with her a large collection of Cymbidium Orchids ,against all advice .Slowly one by one they died, after 2 years all were dead. | |

| I've been told that cyms wont flower here as well but mine do and I certainly don't do anything special. The dendrobiums do best for me tied on a tree and just watered fairly frequently. I've never fed them or anything. | |
