    Default Jumping on the Laelia Purpurata Bandwagon

    Hi guys after looking at the gorgeous Laelia Purpuratas from the other members I thought I would share mine. My variety is carnea and not my favorite but I am starting to appreciate its subtleties. Six spikes and growing in full sun

    That plant would be appreciated even by someone that knows nothing about orchids...it is pretty enough to put in a museum! I had to come back for another look...thanks for posting it for me. I very much appreciate you posting it for me. Thank you
