Скачать или смотреть Orchid Highlights! | Orchids in Bloom, Spike & Updates for August | What's Exciting Right Now?

Hi Everyone, it's Annabel, welcome back to my channel! Today we are looking at some orchids that are flowering or spiking right now that I feel are the highlights of my collection for this month. This isn't everything flowering, but a shortened, more concise version. I have tried to select a variety that best represents what's flowering right now!

Summer Blooming Phalaenopsis:

Phalaenopsis Samera- Phalaenopsis bellina × Phalaenopsis violacea
Lovely fragrance and the best colour and shape, I feel, from any of my summer bloomers.

Phalaenopsis bellina 'alba' x tetraspis 'C1'- Slight grassy/ citrusy fragrance, stunning colours though! 6 spikes

Su's Glad Kid 'Blue' and Purple Martin. Both relative newcomers purchased in winter, adapting well and vigorous. I am hoping for bigger leaves from them both in the coming months.

Cattleya guttata x velutina- Fragrance heaven! Cattleya care video last year- same 2 Cattleya for comparison:    • New Cattleya Blooms! Care Tips - How I Kee...

Neofinetia / Vanda falcata × Renanthera vietnamensis
