WOW! still not bad for 1 handed! LOL
Love the white and pink laelia and the epi's!! OK alll of them!! lol
It that an zygo cross?? the purple one?

It's a bolleanthes; a cross of Bollea violacea and Cochleanthes discolor. It's really a blue-violet than a purple.

It's beautiful! I love it!! one for the list!

It also smells absolutely wonderful. Takes a lot less light than zygos.

Rachel, your "bad" one handed shote, are better than my "good", two handed ones! The pictures are great! I LOVE the sea of epi's!

Den cuthbertsonii 'Red Giant' HCC AOS (I read the tag - my memory is good, but not that good!).
