Love that brassavola, Mj. The hoya is really pretty, too, and those are big flowers - the buds are cool looking as well. I miss my Mex. Sunflowers, had to yank out the big clump I had back by the fence corner as it was competing with my dwarf Poinciana. It does seem to seed itself, though so I doubt it will be gone long.

Crinum blooms at Selby last weekend.
Some really neat plant hangers or mounts for orchids, tillandsias or bromeliads, made out of vine wreaths wired into tiers.
Screw pine cone, I think I'll make this my holiday card this year. The cones were huge, must be all the rain we had.
Pretty, large ground orchids - Spathoglottis- with stems at least 3ft long, and have been in bloom since I was there last - in May!
