You'll better thank the 'roaches

Yes,
Trouble is, I'm still waiting to find out what colour this flower is? thanks to them also.
Now I'll have to wait for another bloom & take steps to ensure it doesn't get eaten!

Hi all - here's a little follow up on a couple of orchids I mentioned earlier
First is the Epidendrum porpax which eventually had 3 blooms. As a first time flowering, I'm happy with that.


Secondly, the early stages of root development on the 2 Keiki's of Epidendrum ibaguense (Crucifix orchid)
Hopefully they will survive the cockroaches

Hi all - here's the latest flowering of a no ID Cattleya I have, which I got from Bro & Sil & originally came from Sil's Mothers garden.
One day I hope to find an ID on this plant. - Enjoy!

[madelaine]

does it have a name?

I expect so, but I've no idea what it is - I'll ask himself

That looks like one of the Phaius orchid types Very nice whatever it is.

What beautiful pics of the orchids!
Thanks for sharing them.
Here is a pic of my Trachycarpus wagneriamus which has flowered for the very first time this year!
If it's a female tree I shall have to try and get some pollen from a male tree to fertilise them so that the seeds will be viable.
