That's beautiful! Why do you say it is 'A death row orchid?"

These are some of the prettiest ones you can find on Death Row! Eastwood2007, some of us scan the store for those that have done bloomed and they put them out for half price of less as folks what to see them in bloom. :wink: We know how to get them to rebloom!

Sometimes there's one flower just about hanging on to give us a clue as to what to expect. I have a cymbidium like that which hopefully will flower soon.

I paid the equivalent of $6 for this dendrobium. A perfect flower would have set me back $20.

Prices are falling, the shops are full of them now, mainly phals but some shops are a little more adventurous.
