Orchids in my Seoul

I had a two hour stop over in Seoul on my way to Singapore. Apparently Dendrobiums do actually bloom. Maybe mine will oneday look like these.

Orchids everywhere in Singapore - I hope to visit the orchid park/botanical garden later this week, so I'm sure I'll have more pictures to show.

Dad, this is for you - the triple 7 I spent 18 hours on. Business class is nice, the food was superb, the bed was a little uncomfortable though. Next time maybe I'll bring a thermarest mattress along.

My first rebloom ever

I bought this Phalaenopsis at Home Depot (you can do it, we can help) in bloom, which lasted many weeks. Now it is producing another flower spike. I'm thrilled to have this happen in my home under my care. Praise the Lord!

Could this be a flower spike?!

My dendrobium orchid that I've had for at least three years appears to be finally producing a flower spike. I can't be sure, it's very tiny, but I have hope. Here's a picture:
This is the first time a bud has appeared at the top of the cane. I understand that orchids of this variety need at least three or four canes before they can bloom because energy is stored in the canes (pseudobulbs).

Sequence of events

I am not feeling well today, so I don't feel like doing anything; but I had fun taking these pictures of Isaac playing.

This foreign structure must be destroyed!

I pummel you!

I grind you into the dust

Enough said
