Wink Sunrise and my bedroom bloomers

Just for grits and shins, here is the sunrise that greeted me this morning. I took the picture through my living room window trying not to get too many plants in the way of the picture. The dark strips in the picture (blurry ones) are my other Orchids that hang in the window.


And here is the Orchid that is one of my best bloomers, this sucker just never stops.
It's a Masdevalia.


I grow this in a fish tank (Home made Orchidarium) with a fogger and fan for air circulation.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Beautiful sunrise Grae! I'm not much of an orchid fan but that one looks really cool! What kind is it?? I've heard orchids are hard to grow if you don't know what you're doing (& since I have what's affectionately called a "black thumb", I don't think I'll be trying it!!)

The Masdevalias like it a bit more on the moister side and that saves me the trouble of watering all the time. I just have it on a timer and it adds moisture to the surrounding air for those that like that "climate."
