Nice plant Ramon! I saw one just like it in Sacramento recently ...

Antioch California. Where salt water comes from the tap and the temps reach 115F ... I have a grow room in my garage. I recently installed a wet wall and temp controlled fan. So far it doesn't get over ~78F. Not the hot part of the year yet. We'll see how hot it gets when it's over 100 outside.

Finally

bessea Don Wimber Elizabeth Castle Inca treasure

A few more: three acmodontums from three different vendors and a virens. Have to work on the lighting.

Don't give up. It gets about 110F here. I have kept some alive (barely) for almost a year. Peak temp in my grow room was about 90F. Have a wet wall and temp controlled fan installed now. Hopefully it will be cooler.

Well ... Someone's culture is on track. I bought it at California Orchids over the weekend. Bolinas is usually in the low 50's at night. Hope it looks like this next time it blooms!

I have a Dean Haas and a veitchiana. I've had them for about a year. Still working on getting their culture down.

Here is one of my favorite non-slipper orchids masdevallia ignea

Lost many of the original leaves but they seem to be adjusting. I noticed the spike starting three days ago. These seem to grow fast.

I believe Val also has an FCC

What's the small one next to the phone?

Continuing ... Paph ying-ji diamond x roth Paph Ho Chi Minh

Bought a roth from orchid inn in September. It was just over 13" when I received it. Hope it survives.

Bloom fest

San Francisco show is in full swing. Nice to go and see orchids again! Nice to go out and see vendors again! Equagenera haul: phrag bessea, paph venustum, phrag sargentianum, phrag schlimii Paph Paradise: roths.

Try treating your bellatulum like a concolor. Worked for me!

I noticed the difference in the leaves but never assumed the plant was miss labeled. I'm happy, bellatulums cost more than concolors. I was planning on getting one anyway.

Bought a paph concolor. It bloomed. Loved it so I bought another. It bloomed. Oh well. I wanted one of those anyway.

It's getting exciting ... And now one blooming phrag & five more in spike.
