| Rlc (Pot) Samantha Duncan 'Paradise' Well, my little Sam. Duncan has popped its first bud and I really like it! There's 3 more buds that I hope look as nice. So, here ya go Brigitte! Didn't want you to have to wait for the others to open, but when they do, I'll post more pics here. Best, Tony

| ...and, for those of us who like our blooms with a bit of sunlight on them! It's surprising to me how different these flowers are from the Sam. Duncan 'Red Hot', I posted back about Christmas time, since they have exactly the same parentage, but I guess different seedlings are going to present differently, as well as their having different grex names (?)

Yeah, those sunshine pics are great. If you let the light comes through the back of the flower it can really make the colors explode! Thanks for posting pics of your beauties. Shann~ |

| Thank you all. I am also a lover of the blooms when photographed with sunshine on them. Shann, the pics don't hold a candle to most of yours, but I'm trying! Best, Tony

Tony, they're beautiful!!! I am so glad that you are enjoying them, and I'm especially glad that they bloomed so quickly after you received them.

Lovely! I have a tray full of Samantha Duncan's so they will hopefully turn out as nice as yours!

| The other blooms have opened on my little catt, so here's some additional pics. Kind of got a 360o bloom radius, since I didn't stake them, but I like the looks of it and I didn't want to take a chance of bud blast again. I need to post them one at a time. Tony

Those last pics were very nice. The color is so intense...no wonder you love it so much. I got one of these recently as a bonus plant so am excited to see if I can bloom it! Shann~ |

Can anybody post what just the spike looks like? I have never bloomed one but, I bought a plant and was unsure if I have a spike or not. I have other orchids but I am not sure about this little guy. Thanks for your help ahead of time. |
