Two Orchids
This Orchid was blooming at work. I was surprised to see it . I took all the Orchids out of the conservatory and just tucked them in among the tropical foliage plants that I put on the terrace. I usually don’t bother with the Orchids as they seem to be getting enough light and water. The tag that was in the pot had faded away and I couldn't tell what the name is.
I have been going over some old files from Florida in February of 2006. I saw this orange Orchid blooming at Nancy Forrester’s Secret Garden. I read a lot of complaints about the condition of the garden and the admission price but I found it a lot of fun with a good mix of botanical stuff. Not bad at all for an ‘in-town’ type of garden.
I uploaded several new pictures to my Florida Keys webpage if anyone is interested. There a few good pictures but in some respects represent an extra culling of all of the files.

The blue orchid is just exquisite! Thank you so much for sharing your work. It is beautiful! Cindy at Rosehaven Cottage
Orhids are so sensual and seductive! Is that a true orange?
Thanks, Cindy.
laynee, hi! That is the true color.
I think the first one is some kind of Zygopetalum and the second may be a Vanda.
