    A very reliable bloomer and one of my favorites.
    This one came from TN.

    Thank you both. Yes, it is very sweetly scented. Ed Merkle grows his to perfection!

    Thank you all. You are very kind.
    Clark, I love cattleya. Especially walker stuff, species, hybrids with walker...make a note of that, will ya? You get to many more shows then I do! ;)

    Angela, yes, if I ever get rid of this or when it gets so large that it threatens the grow room and I have to take the machete to it. I'll keep you posted.

    It really is very pretty even if it is just a hybrid. :cool:

    Thank you, Bob. My dh mowed the lawn last Saturday. Actually, he mostly mowed weeds and errant leaves but still, it was kind of nice to hear a lawn mower!
    My daffodils are coming up and the forsythias in the woods next to the house are starting to show color. I told my sister in Ohio about it and she responded, "I don't care."
    I guess the Ohio ice and cold is starting to wear on her. And she wonders why I don't come up to visit in winter....

    I can imagine, y'all got slammed with that ice. And to think, when I first moved here from Ohio, I missed winter. Pffft.
