I like these orchids grown on the balls of sphagnum.

My favourite orchids since I began at age 11 have been Neofinetia and Angraecoids. Neos smell heavenly! This year I had the best blooming ever: flickr.com/photos/morabeza79/4725692751/

Congratulations on getting your Nerine falcata to bloom a second year in a row! This is terrific! I have some seedling from seed I sowed in 2006, I am hoping to be able to bloom them next year, fingers crossed.

Great photo btw. The leaves remind me of the florida native encyclia tampensis.
