Edgecombe is such a beauty - I really love this one!  :o

A pale Zeus Weinstein is flowering for me.
Second picture is Pleione x confusa seen today at the "Internationale Orchideenwelt" (International Orchid World) Dresden - I did resist to buy one for 40 euro although these were pots with 2 or 3 flowering shoots.

Some lovely Pleiones being shown this year by so many.

I'd like to introduce you to my very own personal Pleione pollinator who has single handed being making a nuisance in my greenhouse. Poor thing does not seem able to fly.

That's a little beauty Jan. Aurita being one of my favorites and looking so strong in that cross. It's not one I've seen before either, is it from Ian Butterfield's 1994 original cross or a remake by someone else?

I love 'Muriel'. Here are a few from today:

P. Snow Monkey with a nice yellow lip, different to the pure white one I posted earlier
P. X confusa
P. Mandalay 'Strawberry Fields'
P. Michael Butterfield
Also a few pots of grandiflora.

My wish list is getting longer and longer - Santa Maria, Potto, Snow Monkey and Muriel got onto it.  ;D

Flowering are Glacier Peak, Kenya 'Bald Eagle' and San Salvador.
