Close-up of my blooming orchid. Looks a lot like the one GAgirl posted earlier. My two flower scapes have 26 flowers blooming.

The variegated one has had exactly the same treatment as this one, i.e. they have literally been side by side for a year. It'sgot nice shiny leaves, a new one coming but is showing no sign of a flower scape. Maybe if I go set it in the mango tree and ignore it for a couple of months it will surprise me?? Anybody got a better idea? I am an orchid ignoramus.

Must admit, the best part of being away for 10 days is coming home to a cat who missed me, and lots of new flowers in the garden.
