    Default Den Momi Cummins 'Midnight Blue' and a brassia

    The den is Den Momi Cummins 'Midnight Blue' and the brassia is a NOID that I purchased last spring at one of those funky sort of garden centers that have all sorts of odd stuff at the end of rows. There were a bunch of these, all potted in what seemed to be garden soil and thriving. I took it home bare-root (was visiting my sister in Asheville) and put it in semi-hydro. And it's doing fine.

    Boy, that Brassia sure looks great! It looks pretty darn familiar too, so I'll go back and look though a few pics for comparison....does it have any fragrance?

    That dendrobium has a great color! And the spider orchid is perfect.

    Cheers,
