I'll let it bloom this year, PEOY 'Sublime Botanical Noodliness' 2021

it's a show winner!! very nice!!

Maybe send to virtual judging by some AOS judges and experts at www.virtualorchids.org. It is not a sanctioned event by AOS but good to see how they compare nationally.

I predict the score to around 88-90 points.

Oh I did that last year, the result was gibberish. Scores ranged from a high of 92 to a low of "kill it with fire."

Very nice plant! I’m impressed! Noodliness has got it all!

I wonder.... Did it look like this years?

I'll make a deal with you. If I can ever bloom it with 7 per spike, I'll have it judged.

How about 6?

 

[tnyr5]

It already blooms with 6, I bet I can make it get 7 ;-).

 

[SlipperKing]

Well Tony you can at least put FCC/ST on the tag. There's no issue here with us.

 

[NYEric]

Very nice, thanks for sharing. Feel better.

I passed the 3rd one tonight. That should be all of them.
This is what misery looks like:

This really is one of the best display of the P.E.O.Y and it’s amazingly grown. Cultural award as well would of came out if I was judging this plant.. congrats on an excellent blooming.

If anyone can bloom a PEOY with 7 flowers, it would be Tony. Actually, he’ll do it with 8 just because he can.

 

[tnyr5]

8 is pushing it.
