That is an absolutely STUNNING bloom, Annie! I don't have any 'doubles' growing (that I am aware of.)
Has it ever thrown a seed pod??
I will try & collect all the seeds from these new seed pods, once they 'pop' ... and will also keep a pic of the flower 'with it', so I know what it should be, when grown out!!! Claire's dad, Cam (who is an accomplished orchid grower) is VERY impressed (as he knows how bad a gardener I am! ;) )
Hmmm, I think it is just the angle of the pic .... I just had another look & it isn't as 'obvious' as it appears to be, in the pic :( I'll keep an eye on them all tho!! ;) A few more are blooming now - so I'll get the toothpicks and scissors out & try again! :)
I have to admit tho - my passion for plants (in general) doesn't extend past the Desert Roses! LOL Luckily, I have a fishing/uke buddy who loves passionfruit, so she gets all my passionfruit - and she gives me the most lovely Dahl and Rice dinners in exchange!! YUM YUM. I've never mastered cooking Dahl .... I must get her recipe! :)
