Orchid of the day: Coelogyne nitida

Coelogyne nitida

Our Himalayan beauty is flowering again. I've posted about this orchid each year at about the same time, March 20th, 2016, March 22nd, 2015 and February 4th, 2014. In 2015, the plant was big enough to be divided. We are happy that the division had resulted in a healthy specimen.

A) Today our Coelogyne nitida is in full bloom. A total of fourteen flowers and three inflorescence.

B) The last time our Coelogyne nitida bloomed, we had only six flowers. 

C) A view from the top.

D) A final picture for this post.

I hope you have enjoyed my post for today. We have been 'quiet' these few weeks because our orchids were not in bloom but it will change very soon! Keep an eye out for upcoming posts!
