\"Vanda<\/a>\"Paphiopedilum<\/a>\"Masdevallia<\/a><\/p>\n

It takes me a while to sort through and tag show photos from two cell phones and a camera, but the task is now complete. Pacific Orchid Expo 2022 presented a total orchid overload, which is my idea of paradise. There were orchids you could find in a supermarket, but there was so much more. Check out additional pictures from my previous two posts here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Phragmipedium,<\/a>\"Dendrobium<\/a>\"Epidendrum<\/a><\/p>\n

The blossoms were big, small, and tiny. Elegant, weird, and goofy. And just spectacular. There were plenty of brilliant colors and strange color combinations. The next row of photos includes tiny flowers, including a light blue Dendrobium<\/a> with blooms so miniature and thin that it seems possible to see individual cells in the photo. After that, there are a couple of shots of strange pleurothallids<\/a> which don’t really look like flowers.<\/p>\n

\"Dendrobium<\/a>\"Dendrobium<\/a>\"Masdevallia<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Pleurothallis<\/a>\"Pleurothallis<\/a>\"Dracula<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with supermarket orchids either. But it is important to see that they represent just a minuscule fraction of the orchid family’s wonders. San Francisco’s show certainly proved the point.<\/p>\n
