The Orchids are in bloom

It never ceases to amaze me when this orchid blooms. It is a Catalaya, the largest and one of the hardest to grow. The blooms are about 6-8 inches across and they smell heavenly. This time I got 3 blooms, usually I'm lucky to get 2. What a rare treat and incredible blessing!

They are absolutely beautiful. Like Karen I tried orchids...got them to bloom one time and then never again. You are lucky to have such beauty in your home.
