Orchids

Pair or light purple corsage orchid flowers

These flowers are almost 3 weeks old now. It’s probably close to the end for them.

Oops I forgot the text description for the picture.
These are yellow Cymbidium flowers with a red lip on the labellum.

In just couple days almost all the flowers are fully open now.

Magenta compact Cattleya flower

After 2 wks, this flower probably has only a few more days before it fades. Too bad the photo doesn’t capture the iridescent colors.

I wish I still had the label for this orchid.

There are orchid species native to most parts of the world. Many are native to North America, but tropical areas probably have more native species.

What a gorgeous red! 🌱📷

Most of these flowers are fully open now.

Miniature pink orchid flower

This truly miniature orchid has flowers much larger than the plant and this flower is now 2 months old. It’s starting to show some aging.

Magenta pink moth orchid flowers

TJ’s had other than Phalaenopsis orchids but I didn’t take their pics because they were wrapped in plastic 😞.

Light yellow moth orchid flowers

First thing I do when I go to a store is look over their orchids.

Here’s another shot of this orchid currently in bloom.

It almost got in my basket 😂

The pictured orchid is not the species Cattleya wittigiana. It is a Cattleya hybrid orchid.

Red compact corsage orchid flower

This orchid remains as one of my favorites. Has long lasting flowers, tolerates cold, flowers frequently, grows without a fuss.

Another beauty at the store.

That’s a Phalaenopsis hybrid. It probably has several species in its ancestry. I love the spots on the petals. 😍🌱📷

Appears to be the species orchid called Paphiopedilum micranthum 🌱📷

That’s beautiful 🌱📷

Raspberry red compact Cattleya flower

I got this last year. Apparently this flowers just once a year unlike some Cattleya hybrids with C. sophronitis in its lineage.

I think you meant PHALAENOPSIS orchid. Paphiopedilum orchids are the lady slipper flowers. 🌱📷

That’s my problem 😉

That looks like a Cymbidium tracyanum orchid or possibly a hybrid of it. It’s beautiful 😍 🌱📷

Looks like butterflies 😍🌱📷

It’s true that retail orchids are grown in greenhouses with environmental controls, but you can accommodate many orchid in the home to make them flourish. It’s just a matter of knowing their basic needs.

Do you also resist buying orchids at the store?
