Wow, what an array of lovely flowers! My 'Little Stars' has one spike coming, so I am thrilled. I do think next on my wish list will be that Encyclia 'Green Hornet' that Jim showed a while back. I like the idea of an orchid that blooms all the time.

'Doris Dukes' is absolutely bizarre, Jim. Beautiful, but I still think it looks more like a sea creature than a flower. Maybe 'cause I'm a diver too. Here's my best blooming shot for today - taken on our last dive trip. If you look closely you can see 7 little golden squids blooming down the left side of the purple feather.

We still did not break below 50deg. last night, to my great relief. The forecast looks good to stay warm for most of next week, too. Phew!
