I have come back about five or six times now to stare at your pictures. The first picture looks so much like my lazy butt Tibiana that I baked this spring in the hopes of a spike. lol I will just stare at yours and drool until mine gets a clue and blooms. My schomb's aren't the only orchids that seem to do well when tended by ants. If I have spikes and ants are running up and down them I am almost insured that I won't lose a single bud. In fact it often means the plant itself is busting healthy as well. k..back to drooling over your pics

But those ants look very dangerous to us if they sting, are they? Beautiful flowers but in my case I am allergic to any insect bite or sting so I guess from a distance would be fine.

Man, what a huge healthy orchid! Love the blooms and the long spikes.

They do bite sometimes but they are not dangerous. Thanks for looking and commenting .
