Northern California coast is usually warmest in autumn. The summer fog eases, and lets the sun shine through. In Pacifica, the warmer weather has arrived on schedule, and that&#8217;s reason enough to celebrate today&#8217;s equinox with some gorgeous blooms. They&#8217;re only photos from an old orchid show, but they fit the seasonal cycle quite nicely. As the days shorten, these incredible flowers stay luminous. Happy equinox.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutorchids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Dendrobium_Blue_Violetta_x_Aridang_Blue_1000px.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
