Your phalenopsis orchid is beautiful and in good condition. The leaves are a giveaway. Ian is most envious as he has not this one. Most of ours are yellow, white or purple. We have not been able to acquire the spotted multi coloured phalenopsis orchids.
I would love to see the franjipanie photo that is the colour of the "post comment" box.
We have the common white, Darwin Red, yellow and the multi coloured tropical franjipanies. I am trying my hand at grafting a white and yellow. So far I've not had much success. But I will keep trying. Eventually 1 must succeed.
Desert roses are another favourite plant. I love how the base of a desert rose becomes bulbous when the plant is confined to a pot. Desert roses do well when they are pot bound.
@tigerbeth I wish wisteria would grow up here. It looks just great tumbling over the timber fence.
