| Dendrobium
aggregatum ( lindleyi) It normally flowers in May for me, this year it spiked in August. This Orchid is supposed to have a drier Winter rest, it never really gets that under my conditions. But - the mount dries up very quickly, especially since I grow it very bright year around. Perhaps the down-pours in July gave it the signal to bud. |

| Encyclia
brassavolae I moved the plant in the Spring into a 10 inch diameter wire basket. Four spikes are opening in succession. Nice spicy-floral scent reminiscent mainly of Carnations with a touch of Cinnamon in the evening |
