    I hope you are planning on posting photos of your anniversary presents when you get them.

    Do you know when they are arriving?

    Lol, Judi!

    I will post whatever's worth posting for sure! Prosthechea and Phal Sweet Memory arrived today. Prosthechea's in bloom so I'll try to snap it some time today. It's a weird one, looks like an octopus

    The rest are coming from a different vendor but should hopefully be here in the next couple of days.

    The rest arrived this morning, here are the two that are in bloom

    Beallara Peggy Ruth Carpenter 'Morning Joy' Has a sweet, peppery sort of smell


    And Coelogyne cristata. Also fragrant - a sweet, jasmine sort of smell, I'd say.




    Prosthechea close up

    The Beallarra is such a lovely colour and pattern, I really like that one. The other two are very nice too!

    Mr E deserves a Gold Star!
