Grand, Beautiful Orchid, long lasting bloom

Beautiful! Is this a bull dog paph?

You know Capt, I've been collecting orchids for a long time, I don't know a whole lot about them, since I've been on Dg, I'm learning more and more, what is a bull dog paph? the discription I gave was all that I could find on it. If you know more, please educate me!!! Thanks, Annie

another beautiful one!!!!!!!! green with envy. i tried one and i didn't have any luck with it. belinda

daylily970, they do take to care, buy yourself and easy one, I don't know if you have Trader Joe's or Trader Vic's there, I always get them at a reasonable price, I even feed them weakened coffee!!! Annie

Trader Joes has orchids??????! No way! I love that store!

Sorry Hanna, I don't know much about these I have yet to even buy one or two or three, lol.

Ya, I've bought a whole lot of them there over the years!!!! Many different varieties, and it is one of my favorite stores!

All beautiful, Annie !!!!!!

lol,---Perry

Thank you Perry, I was really pleased how the pic came out!

annie it's fabulous! i just love orchids, too. i find it easier to take care of than most other plants.

Daylily, I'm happy for you, when you do go to Traders, take lot's of money if you like wonderful and fresh vegetables and fruit, also their wines are quite inexpensive as well, and they have many beers from around the world, better priced than Cosco!!!!!
moonglow, yeppie, more plant space, and that is always good, lol, I'm posting the leaves for you, thanks again, Annie

annie, you are making me go to trader joe's right now!

i actually like buying potted orchids because they last longer than a vase of flowers. then i get to baby the plant to bloom again!

=) thank you. love the pot, too.

Mooglow, you're making me laugh, You are absolutely right, but I still can't resist putting together my own bouquets!!!! Annie

That's a beautiful flower. What do you consider reasonable? How do you tell an easy one from a pain?

Sugar, I really don't know, i have many different variaties, they all look fine here, another kind has been flooming now for over 3 weeks, and has several flowers on it! I will post it for identity, I thought it was chocolate, but now not sure, lol. Like I've said, I really don't baby them much, I just make sure they are not dry, don't sit in water, fertilize rarely, a little diluted coffee once in a while, the grounds go in my shade garden

The paphiopedilum is a beautiful flower. my plant name is Hampshire Buss X Skip Bartlett. I bought from Home Depot. In the past I had paphiopedilum with color dark burgendy, One stem had 2 flowers,(one flower on top to first flower) it suppose could bloom 3 flowers, but the insect killed the 3rd flower. it bloomed more than 3 months. I could not post the picture. (can only post one picture)maybe some other time. I killed my plant. I wanted to replant the keki to different pot, but I cut the wrong root.
My phalaenopsis can bloom to 8 months.
