Jewel Orchid - Ludisia Red Velvet

This is lovely....

Thank you Michaella, I can't wait for the flower!!!

That was quick! You've only just got it!!!

I really do like this one Alex. quite stunning,

LOL,,,,the flower bud was already forming when I bought it Meanie.

Thank you Yorkshire...it's a nice addition.

That's cheating!

Nope, that's making sure I'm going to have a flower!!!

Can't argue with your logic!

;o)

This is a lovely photo, AM! As I didn't know anything about these plants I did a quick search & found this very interesting site:

http://www.tandcterrariums.com/orchids.html

They have a page dedicated just to Jewel Orchids!

Thanks Balcony, I just had a look.
I usually do a good search when I buy a new plant.

Alexandramou:

Gorgeous shot! It should be blooming soon.

I took pics of this same orchid blooming in Balboa Park last year...and none of the pics came out good at all.

Delonix, I can't wait for it to bloom!!!

Alexandramou:

Is this the first time it's going to bloom for you?

Yes Delonix...I only have it a few weeks. I check it a few million times a day!!!

Alexadramou:

That's funny! :>)

Before you know it...it will be blooming.

Yes, and I'll be posting pictures.... ;o)))))
