Growing Paphiopedilums or Paphs is my main hobby. I also grow many other orchids such as phalaenopsis, dendrobium, coelogyne etc.

Phalaenopsis violacea
Dendrobium anosmum
Fruit flies are attracted to the intense scent of the flowers. The recent rainy spell might have triggered the flowering.

Paphiopedilum concolor
This concolor flowered a couple of days ago. It's one of those with a line down the middle of the petals. I believe this variety is called concolor var. straiatum.

Dwarf dracaena species
This is an unknown species of dwarf dracaena from Thailand. It will produce a flower stalk from the top when conditions are right.
Impatiens phengklaii
This is a plant from Thailand. The famous plant with a bird-shaped flower when viewed from the side. But I prefer the front view.

Cymbidium ensifolium alba
After doing some re-potting, one of the ensifoliums flowered. This is an alba form which is commonly referred to as 素心兰 in mandarin. This particular plant is a miniature form of 观音素心兰。

Coelogyne mayeriana
This is a very hardy plant and had shorter leaves when grown in full sun. Now that its in the shade, the leaves and pseudobulbs have grown longer.
