    These are all stunning! Agreed! Everyone love large and or lots of flowers!!! Congrats on the achievements!!! Off topic, but thought I’d share, after about 3 tries I finally have what looks like protocom formation in my latest flasks from a few weeks ago! Cautiously optimistic… every “next level” seems to take a few tries to succeed.

      I like that one too - it's a first bloom - too bad it did not stand up very well - now I know to stake it. I pollinated flowers right after making this video so most of the blooms have since faded, which means that it may have been a successful cross and THAT is beautiful!!

    First Comment, Woah! 😮
    Congratulations, Mr. Plant Propagator! 🎉🎉
    Well deserved awards right there! All of them are beautiful! If I only lived near you or in the same state/country, I'd for sure visit and ask for divisions of your orchids because all of your orchids are top notch!
    Also, I've wanted to ask if you have any tips on how to avoid the fertilizer marks on leaves? 😅 I don't mind it actually, but the plant looks much more presentable and displays it's health well when the leaves are shiny or clean~

      Thanks for your comment but I mostly show the nice orchids - no one wants to see the not-so-nice ones.
      For marks on the leaves, I am mostly focused on the flowers and plant health and do not care about water spots. When you apply pesticide, those leave a huge amount of residue but it is protecting the plant so I look past that. When I attend member meetings and make RUclips videos, I do not clean my orchids other than removing the brown leaves and spent flowers.
      But, when I bring my flowers into shows, I clean all of the leaves with diluted lemon juice, which leaves a nice shiny finish. I do not recommend this be done often as it may not be good for the plant. Some orchids have shinier leaves and just present better too.

      Thanks - this was just fun - but, to be honest, more people should have brought their orchids in and some of the more prolific growers were not in attendance.
