Orchid Blooms



I got this orchid at Lowe's several years ago at a freakishly low price, but it was in freakishly bad shape. It has grown out of it's condition. I believe it is an interspecific hybrid, but the tag is gone. I love the green and pink color combination. It has been in bloom for at least a month.

Hey, Aunt Zubie!!
Let's all eat a buncha hot dogs for the 4th.

January Orchids

This yellow and bronze orchid is Odontocidium 'Pacific Sun Spots'. This is the first bloom for me and I hope in the future it will have more flowers on the bloom stalk. I cannot let January and February go by without getting  a cyclamen, which is sitting here beside the 'Pacific Sun Spots'. I love cyclamens, for both their unusual slicked back flowers and their beautiful leaves.
I believe this is also an interspecific orchid; in other words, they are crosses between two orchid genera. However, I do not have the name of this one anymore, if I ever did. It is big and beautiful and very crimson.
