Here are a couple orchids that are blooming today...
This one is covered in spikes coming along, besides blooming its head off:
The flash washed out its bright banana yellow blossoms.

And this one I bought in FLorida last April, it was blooming when I bought it.
Now it is blooming again with lots of buds coming along.
Also smells like a Lemon-y Gardenia...

Thanks everyone! :D
Yup, Gigi is VERY distracting...she just loves me to carry her everyhwere. When I am at my computer, she wants up on my lap. No matter where I am, she want UP. She is such a lap dog. And too adorable to say 'No!' to. :o
Joan, the Orchid is some kind of a Cattleya. I think.
The tag is at home and I am at work now, so I will tell you later when I get home. :D

Joyce your orchids are just beautiful! Yesterday here in Daytona, I saw lots of bloomimg orchids! I thought of you when I saw them! :)
The pics of your little GG are not making it easy for me to be without a puppy!!! She is so pretty. My daughter has two and one is 4lbs. and the other is 5lbs. My other daughter has a puppy that is 78lbs.... a Rottweiler.
