| Joe, What's the Phrag? It looks like Phrag. Achental (Hanna Popow x richteri) or possibly Phrag Mountain Maid (besseae x hirtzii) produced with a yellow besseae?

| Wow, that is sweet, how do you tear yourself away from all that? Nice growing.

Nature has formed orchid flowers in such a way that, unless they make us laugh, they surely excite our greatest admiration." Jacob Breynius |

| Joe, your display is fantastic. Your collection looks very diverse, love it. How did you secure the lighting fixtures to the shelves? I have the same units as you (11 of them) and would be interested in doing the same. |

Good work on both the growing and the names! Your set-up is virtually identical to the one I used when I lived in the US. It works very well, especially for slippers. I went one step further and put humidity trays under everything which allowed me to bring a watering can to the stand and water th eplants where they sat. Very convenient.

| It is only the two flowers! Two little Den kingianum flowers is my total. I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER orchids flowering at present.  What I said was totally tongue in cheek.

| Anton, I know you were being facetious in your comment about wall to wall flowers, I was just stating that I really won't mind having a room full of them. Kind of jealous that we don't have them as available here in the USA as you guys down under do.
