      I am so disappointed that a lovely Laelia given to me by Roger flowered just 3 days after our monthly meeting…she is clearly a wayward specimen (like the song)…say no more.

      Seems that my orchids thrive whenever I go away and neglect them.

          Sorry for the late reply! It is Odontioda pantagruelia “Oracle” bought from Ray at Tinonee from his beautiful collection on sale at AOCC2018. I’ve been told it needs to be kept dry in winter, and experience less than 15C to trigger flowering. I had three long racemes on this plant that lasted for a couple of months.

          I also love this Odontocidium succubus “Night Shift” that flowered in June – August 2107 and May-August 2018 with two long racemes. It was given to me at the 2016 ESOS Xmas Party.
