| That is neat how the flower varies from blooming to blooming. I'll definitely have to go through my orchid photos and organize them so I can compare the blooms from year to year.

| Bargain? I think I just got a fantastic bargain!!! I just bought this nobile-type dendrobium, Den Small Dowan for AUD$27. With the size of the plant and the flower quality, I think I got a bargain. What do you think?

| 2 more Here's 2 more: Cymbidium Wyanga 'Elanora' Dendrobium nobile var. virginale - this variety is not recognized for breeding purposes (it's listed as Den nobile for hybridizing purposes) but I am choosing to keep a record of this variety in case any changes are made in the future. I bought this little guy about a month ago in bud with tiny little buds only about half a centimeter at the time. Its already got new growth startign at the bottom.

| And for all you Bulbo fans.... Bulbophyllum elisae - cute, strange, little bulbo with odd little flowers. The second pic, of the flower, is sideways. Right side up it looks something like a dinosaur bird.

| I think the old pseudobulbs on that Bulbo are really cool also. They look like they're made out of carved wax or something. They're really pretty!

| I really really like the Dendrobium nobile var. virginale. The white lips are different. Humm...is it the shape of it? I think that's what I like about it. Of course I like the green Cym. too. I agree with Patti that the Bulbo is interesting. I'm more intrigued with the pseudobulbs than the flowers. All are very nice. Thanks.

| Yukidiruma Well, I'm a little dissapointed sort of.... The DendrobiumYukirieuma I posted about back in July when it started spiking has flowered. Unfortunately it flowered while I was in Canada and the pot tipped slightly so the flowers are all pointing in different directions making the display kind of a mess. Also some of the flowers gor snail munched.
