    I want five as well!

    They are both really lovely! The intensity of the red is amazing, and the markings of yours is very pretty.

    Cool Beautiful

    I love both the red orchids.
    The freckled one looks like a cat's face.

    suzcc is right, that's a cat face for sure! I do like the spotted one even though the color isn't as intense.

    I think they are both beautiful in their own way. The first one for its purity, the second one for its spots.

    Jason, he had these in spike but I believe all that is currently left are ones that are either seedlings or 6-12 months away from blooming. Oh, I believe he also has some previously spiked ones that blasted, so the flowers were never seen. These have one - two new growths developing.
