Photos of plant life
This thread is for photos of plant life, for the plant lovers.
Also purchased this beauty, I love the contrast of it. I believe it is an Odontoglossum Wildcat hybrid (probably Rainbow variety?). If you have any ideas of a clear ID, please let me know.
@recliningfate Oh my goodness!!! So frilly and fancy!!!!! Just amazing what nature and botanists can come up with!!!!!!!!!!
I agree! It is a joy to visit the garden center, some orchids smell like roses, chocolate, lemons. This particular one has a slight floral fragrance. Humans and nature can work beautifully together.

What a treat to see friends @hounddog 2022 and @recliningfate Your enthusiasm for plant life is contagious! Reclining fate, your orchids are out of this world. I don't believe I ever saw such a beautiful flower! Thank you so much for sharing. I think we can get to know people through the things they love, too, and it's lovely to meet people who appreciate plant life.
Take care, and see you around. And post as often as you want. I love to see all your photos!!!!!!!
@PatienceImpatiens @hounddog2021 re-tagging because I had your tag wrong (wrong year!)
I feel so as well about getting to know people through what they love. I thank you, Pat, for tagging me into this thread. I am grateful to have found this.
@recliningfate
fate : hi !
I am looking forward to seeing pictures of your plants !
Hi Mike!
All in good time. Glad to have you here! 🌿
I will add a link to an image as I am on the app and can not upload it.
This one is Monstera Adansonii, with its beautiful Christmas bow, bringing the Christmas spirit in the house. I love the Swiss cheese leaves and that it is growing. 🌿

@recliningfate OOOOOHhhhh the Swiss cheese leaves are so Uber-cool!!!! Isn't nature fascinating? I like the "spirit of the bow" as well --- very cheery!
Love decorating the plants during Christmas. ❤️

My lil succulent garden.
@CosmicMango222 Hi, dear Cosmic Mango, I wish I could see the photo; your succulent garden sounds adorable!
I can't figure out why it won't upload. 🤔
@CosmicMango222 Hi, I have not had any luck uploading from my phone app. I have to go to my computer to upload any photos. I think it is something with 7 cups interface because I can upload photos to other sites from my phone.
So since I am learning to appreciate real life and its imperfections, I have here a Dendrobium Nobile in my collection since around August. I bought it as a challenge back then. It is quite shriveled and it went through a few potting changes (hope it is okay now). What I discovered is how resilient and how much it wants to live, it has 4 new growths at its base with new roots coming in.
It reminds me how much one can want to be here, and maybe it reflects (or maybe I project on it) a bit of my journey. I hope it will be here around for me.
Pasting the raw link as well, on the app tapping on that hyperlink does not work for me : https://ibb.co/WzGtK9B
Also the flowers smell like honey! Hope I can show some one day.

@PatienceImpatiens this reminds me of a pic i took last winter/spring bluebells i think these are but not sure i just love the flowers that show their beauty when everything surrounding it is dead its kind of inspirational i guess like a reminder always a new beginning and it happens all the time :)
