Pictures From: The Greater Orlando Orchid Society Show & Sale! Part 1

I went to the Greater Orlando Orchid Society's Show & Sale today. For those of you in FL, it's going on through this Sunday, February 15th.



I usually have my husband take pictures when we go to orchid shows as he is a much better photographer than I. Unfortunately for you, he was unable to accompany me so you'll have to deal with my barely acceptable photography skills. I did think to take a photo of the identification tags when I could. If I messed up a name, or you have an ID for one I couldn't get, please comment below. I have too many pictures so I'll split them up. Here is Part 1 of 2, hope you enjoy the photos!

Dendrobium nobile hybrids
Cymbidium
Angraecum Crestwood "Tomorrow Star"

Encyclia cordigera
Vanda denisoniana x merillii, this one did not want to photograph, At. All. Too shiny!
Coelogyne?
Bulbophyllum
Epidendrum
Vanda hybrid
Jumellea comorensis
Lc. Mini Purple 'Princess Road' x Enc. leucantha 'FISO'
Cattleya speciosissima var. lueddemanniana 'Stanley'
One vendor had a Vanda luzonica on display! I wish there were some, even seedlings for sale, but unfortunately this is a rarer one.

Vanda luzonica
Vanda luzonica flowers
Vanda luzonica flower, close up....can you tell I love this Vanda?

Spathoglottis hybrid. Sorry for no name, think this was a NoID guys.

Maxillaria
Vanda Pimchai Beauty...in love with this one too
Cymbidium Gustav Mehlquist
Some Schomburgkias towered over it all. Ooops, I  mean Laelias, but the Laelias that used to be Schombs...

Rhyn. gigantea Orange and Kultana

Rhychostylis Red
Angraecum Crestwood 'Tomorrow Star'
Dendrobium lindleyi
They had a few Esmeralda species for sale, don't see that everyday. As far as I know it's too hot to grow them here in FL, unless you have a specialty greenhouse and can cool them. Please correct me if I'm wrong as I want to go back and buy all Esmeralda species.


Yellow Cattleya hybrid
Lc. Siamese Doll. Been seeing a lot of these at shows, is it the hot new hybrid or what?
Phal Mem. Liu J....(can't read the rest of the tag) This Phal was a stunner though, beautiful lip
Cattleya loddigesii


Stay tuned for more orchid photos, Part 2 coming up next...
