It looks like the one in this picture is suffering from the unusually cold weather we’ve had in San Francisco. I’m trying to protect it and hope for the best. It does produce beautiful blossoms. Thank you for your comment.
Please do, Rob. I tried to grow orchard from bulbs but have not been successful. How did you start?
I have a “friend” in Thailand, he grows many kinds of orchard and sent me some photos. He’s not a photographer so the flowers are not fairly presented – angles, lighting and backdrop, etc.
My orchid started from a bulb that a friend gave me. The orchid has lasted two years which
is a miracle. Most plants look at me and expire within days. 🙂
How rare and lovely. Hopefully I can grow one like that also. I am working on my first orchid now. https://noelliesplace.com/2019/02/25/rookie-green-thumb/

The pattern of these orchids reminds me of the king cheetah. They’re exquisite. Thank you for sharing, Rob.

That’s an interesting observation, Miriam. If the orchid blossoms again this year I’ll be sure to take and post photos.

I have better luck with bulbs of lilies which come back every year. Some died because I didn’t take care of them. 🙂
