One of these is not an orchid - guess which one?

During a recent stay in Palmy, I visited the Peter Black Conservatory to get my daily orchid fix. On show was Laelia purpurata var flamea, Brassidium Fly Away 'Miami' and another intriguing species - the Philippine orchid - which the former Belgian King Boudewijn was apparently very taken by. Lovely as it is, and despite my daughter's enthusiasm, I'm an orchid purist so won't be adding one to my collection 😂

🌸 First Flower Alert! 🌸

There’s nothing quite like the excitement of a seedling cross blooming for the very first time! This week, one of our Phalaenopsis crosses—Phalaenopsis Mituo Sunrise 'POM' x GW Green World—opened its first flower, and it’s a stunner.

The best part of growing seedling crosses is the surprise - you never know what you’ll get until that first flower opens!

🌱 Want to try your hand at growing one of these beauties or another cross? We have flowering-size plants available now on the Orchid Obsession webshop.

No surprises what's in flower 🤔
The heady scent gave it away the moment I opened the greenhouse door. Stanhopea tigrina - everything about it is OTT😍
