Tropical pot show.

Our winter here is warmer than usual we are enjoying it and so are some of my pots.
Thought it might make a good post, the colours are so vibrant in the morning sun.These pots are all getting full morning sun and facing north[because that is where we live]south if you are above the equator.

I'd have them all if I could. Especially that Dendrochilum.

 

Wow! Spectacular plants. I love the Dendrochilum orchid and the way you showed off its cascade of blooms in an elevated pot. I wish winter looked so good here.

 

Amazing group of foto's, Choccy. You really do live in a good place.

 

You've done a beautiful job with your pots and the photos!

 

Gives me a natural "high" Love all of them Chocolate but your Wisteria is to die for......

 

Thankyou everyone, so pleased you enjoyed the photos,
Barb do you mean this vine....

Sometime ago...last year I did have a wisteria but it didn't do very well so you know what happens here if you don't do the rules....
It was a dwarf variety and I think it was not cold enough for it.

I think Wisteria is very pretty. But that's one plant my brothers have forbidden for me to grow here at the house, because it can just take over.
So... I abide by their wishes... Most of the time :-D

 

Yes chocolate, I love that stuff.

cherylad, I agree about taking over that's why I keep my only growing on an arbor. It's wild but only gave me one flower....?????

 

They are all so pretty

 

Hi chocolate,Your plants are to die for!I think your climate is more conducive to growing these flowers than mine.I did have a greenhouse full of orchids for a time. But,alas,I became addicted to quilting & traded my orchids for a flock of chickens.I had a lot of Cymbidiums.I could get one here but it would cost $50.
Maybe later on in the fall would be a good time to mail order 1.
