That's a wonderful link, The witch. Thanks! I'm not sure there's an exact match from the photographs. Did make me want to get a yellow flowering one!

Another odd bloomer ... There's actually two flowers on this guy but I only got the one photographed. An Encyclia.

Oops. The proper ID for that guy is Encyclia cochleata. That is one of the more odd looking flowers but that's what I look for.

Oh, FC! That's a stunner! I had one, though not as nice, but it was one of the orchids that were stolen last summer.
That's a lovely coloured flower, Maggy! Sooooo pretty! Some of my Phals. are sending off more flower spikes.
Some more of my bloomers I discovered today:

Thanks. My collection of plants is but a fraction of what it was two years ago. Too much *real* life got in the way but hopefully this will be a better year in many respects.
I have some more photos of my bloomers but Photobucket and I are having issues. LOL! It's taking forever and a half to upload my photos again. Some of my orchids are missing their ID labels. Kitten, Marcie, is the guilty one. There's labels on the kitchen floor or on the stairs and I'm not sure which one goes to which plant. Pets! Great, aren't they?
