Post by: Carol on June 03, 2007, 14:12:11
These are some of the beautiful Orchids I saw at Gardening Scotland.  I just thought of Emma J. when I took the pics.

they look lovely. i think the first one is a miltonia.....second one an odontoglosum....and then phalaenopsis....then a vanda on the right. right?

i'm going through a strange orchid obsession right now too.

Lovely pics  :) Reminds me of when I was kid, going out with my dad at the weekends hunting for wild orchids.

He was a dab hand at finding them as well  ;)

Hi Wahaj! Where have you been hiding?!

Gorgeous Carol.  After coming home with the lillies, did you sneak any orchids in to?
