    Talking Two New Arrivals!

    I know....I really have to stop buying more orchids but I found two on the top of my "wanted" list.

    And here they are....

    Encyclia adenocaula:


    Prosthechea (Encyclia) mariae:



    The adenocaula has blooms very similiar to my kennedyi...kinda a purple/pink, and the plant they sent me was so nice. The mariae has an amazing green/white bloom with a large lip. I hope the mariae performs for me....from what I understand its a cooler weather orchid, but am not 100% on that. I hope the heat here won't affect it in the summer, but I could always bring it inside if need be.

    Is it sad that I have no control when buying orchids? I can't think of anything else I'm a shopaholic over...

    I keep saying to myself..."If I move this orchid here and that one there....I can fit one more!"
