quite a few plants come into bloom. Blooms have been running the gamut from silly corsage style cattleyas to rare cool growing species.<br /><br />At the left is <span style="font-style: italic;">Prosthecea vitellina</span>, a cool growing species from Central America. The flowers are a magnificent shade of orange, have a waxy substance and are long lasting. The inflorescence is manageable and the flowers open sequentially from the bottom up. To my knowledge, it hasn't been widely used in hybridizing. This plant would seem to have excellent qualities for breeding brightly colored, cold tolerant plants. <br /><br /></span><a style="font-weight: bold;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7747/1191/1600/Nov%208%202005%200071.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7747/1191/200/Nov%208%202005%200071.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">After what seemed like an eternity, <span style="font-style: italic;">Lc. </span>Nippon 'Livinza' finally bloomed. The spikes and buds took months to mature. The blooms were a bit disappointing and seem dated compared to the classic, simple lines of <span style="font-style: italic;">Prosthecea vitellina</span>. The plant is huge vegetatively and a veritable space hog. Also, despite claims, this plant did not have a fragrance. <br /><br /><br /></span><a style="font-weight: bold;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7747/1191/1600/Slc%20India%20Rose%20Sherwood%202.0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7747/1191/200/Slc%20India%20Rose%20Sherwood%202.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Finally, there are the blooms of </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Slc. </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">India Rose Sherwood 'Kiilani'.
