NCOS Fall Show 2009, part 3

Below are pics of individual flowers from the show that captured my attention.

Cym. Kusuda Beauty (Kusuda Shining x Red Beauty), exhibited by Carter and Holmes


















Cym. Solar Flare (insigne x dayanum), exhibitor unknown


















Sophronitis (formerly Laelia) perrinii, exhibited by Carter and Holmes














Guarianthe (formerly Cattleya) bowringiana 'Augusta', AM/AOS, exhibited by Carter and Holmes














Lc. C.G. Roebling 'Sentinel', exhibited by Carter and Holmes














Paph. Sander's Pride, exhibitor unknown


















Cycnoches Jean E. Monnier, exhibited by Chryss Mavrides














I'm still experimenting with a few Cattleya Alliance hybrids, so anymore of this section will have to wait until I can reliably bloom the few that I have. Instead, I may try a couple hybrids or species of the Cycnoches Alliance for 2010. Their deciduous nature and winter rest period is attractive for one who must bring orchids indoors to overwinter.
