Winter Blossoms

Orchids blooming so far this winter

My orchids are beginning to come into bloom.
Over the next few months I expect to have many phalaenopsis and dendrobiums showing off.

This oncidium really smells like chocolate.


One of my favorite phalaenopsis.



I can't really take credit for this Vanda. I bought it in bloom.
The challenge will be to get it to bloom again next year.


A few remarkable plants like this camelia are blooming outside
in spite of the freezing weather.


Another camelia



Even a few gerber daisies have survived the cold.


Pansies are a good cold weather plant in Florida.
