Well, I dragged a few orchids on vacation with me to Myrtle Beach. I brought 2 in flower paphs., one catt. in flower, 2 paphs. in bud and 1 oncidium in bud. The ones in bud haven't opened yet but I thought I show you the two that are open. The first photo is Paph. gratrixianum. It has one previously bloomed growth and one in flower and a 3/4 size growth. The leaf span is 13 inches.
Next is the first of 8 plants of this grex to open. It is Paph. godefroyae var leucochilum. This is a first bloom seedling with a leaf span of only 6 inches. The flower has good color but isn't opened as much as I'd like. It won't be opening any further on this blooming has I already waited a few weeks before having Donna take the photo. I'll be holding onto all of my leucochilum until they bloom out a couple of times and become stronger plants. Only time will tell.
