    Very nice photos, Geoff. Love seeing red orchid blooms. The velvet color is so pretty.

    Cheers,

    I have just taken a pic of the spike only, today,8th February - 5 weeks after the original pics ; All branches now have almost all flowers open, and the original flowers still good if slightly faded. Quite good going I think. I have posted this as a new thread, since I can't add to the original pics above except by way of a link.
