    Just a snap shot of the east end of my green house on March 3, 2012. In bloom, starting in the lower left (orange) is a Renanthera hybrid; Cattleya hybrid; Dendrobium nobile; Dendrobium spectabile; top-center purple is Dendrobium goldschmidtianum; slightly right of center is Dendrobium pendulum; far right and blurry because it is close is Gongora histrionica.

    What a great view. It's wonderful to have many plants in bloom simultaneously and wow, that D. spectabile is fantastic!

    Probably about 3 feet tall. Here is an old post. It continued to fill the pot and get huge and I finally divided it this past spring. It is a wonderful species and does well for me but is a space hog.

    It's fun to look back at the pictures and see the changes. haha yes same here, I try in the spring to clean all the walls except the north one. I used to work for a orchid nursery and that was one of my main jobs. So much scrubbing!

    Beautifully done as usual, Kelly. Your plants and greenhouse are gorgeous. If I wasn't on the other side of the country, I'd be asking for a tour too.
