Who knows why, but now doing a cut and paste of a picture is working. Nevermind that last post. Here's a picture of my newest beauty. It's really pretty in person and has two large blooms with several buds. It is Dgmra. Winter Wonderland "White Fairy" and I found it at Orchard Supply Hardware.

I bought a new orchid today--Dgmra. Winter Wonderland "White Fairy". I can't get a picture to upload to a post here, but check this link for a photo.

This afternoon, I repotted an Oncidium and took lots of photos. Just finished writing the article and posted it at here. This poor little orchid was looking pretty sad and I'm sure it will be a lot happier in the new pot.

I have been doing lots more updating at BellaOnline and hope to get some more done tomorrow. I need to repot a couple of things and may try to take some photos for a future article. The orchid listings at eBay have been calling my name and I've bid on a couple of things. Also ordered from Carter and Holmes and another place I can't remember the name of--will update that when the package arrives.

Here's a photo of my latest purchase. I found a great looking Oncidium Sharry Baby at Trader Joe's and had to give it a new home. I love the fragrance and this plant has an especially strong aroma. We have a spare west-facing bedroom that is slowly being turned into a combination craft and plant room. This plant looks great on my desk near the window.

I have decided to start keeping a separate blog category for my orchids collection. I will also be posting links to updated content @ BellaOnline Orchids.
