    Default Brassia Orchid

    This unidentified Brassia fell off the orchid sale table into my shopping cart yesterday while I was at the local garden center buying some orchid repotting supplies. Since it as on sale I decided to bring it home with me.

    Beautiful, and I am glad that in the fall it did not hurt itself. Maybe now that its found a home it will take less risks. AL

    I think that has happen to all of us, a few times. Enjoy! I have one almost like that, and it has become one of my best bloomers.

    Those jumping orchids are related to the ones that follow you home I think. I see your jumper is one pretty spider orchid. Love those long pretty petals!
