    Nelson,

    You have a wonderful collection of Cirrhos - how many do you have? And for how long do they bloom?

    You're tempting me, and that's bad!

    Default Thank you, ladies.

    I had the plant on the sofa earlier for taking back out after photo taking. Mr Cat ate all of the bloom, promtly.

    Well, all I can say is 'I hope you love that cat, I would have wanted to harm him, just a little'. That 'was' a gorgeous orchid.

    Oh no! Well, on the bright side, he just ate the blooms - & you had already snapped so excellent photos.

    Oh dear. Sorry for the loss. At least you got the photos, and Mr. Cat only got the flower.

    Julie

    PS - Happy Birthday!

    DOH-Mr. Cat thought this was Cirrhopetalum FLAVORedPETALum-veneris! Excellent photos in any case, I'm glad you got them first!
