Wow, Ursula! So delighted to see you here also. Those are good signs!
Thanks friends. Ah, yes.... I must make more frequent peep-ins into this place to get the actual feel of it!
boojum, thanks for naming the first orchid. I had posted it on the id forum on DG last year but it did not yield much. Now I'll look for it for more details. It comes in January only.
Regarding that Epidendrum picture, there was that morning sun helping me. The wall also was a good b/g for it. There is another picture I'll post later. For now, here are two pictures - the earliest I have taken of these Epidendrum from a camera I used to borrow occasionally from a friend - it was a Sony Mavica 76 or something - that used to store pictures on a floppy! He was so kind to lend me the camera for a day. With that I could post pictures on DG. The E'drum has also a red variety which I show here. The spathoglottis also has a few shades.
