Gardening











This will be a page about gardening, links, and about the plants in my care. I love gardening, perhaps a little too much, but hey, everybody needs a hobby.

Plants I currently have:

Jasminum multiflorum
Family: Oleaceae (olive family)
Common Names: downy jasmine, star jasmine

Singapore Plumeria, Frangipani
Scientific Name: Plumeria obtusa L.
Family: Apocynaceae

I also have several orchids: two cattleyas, a phalaenopsis, odontoglossum Burrageara Nelly Isler, a miltassia royal robe "Jerry's Pick", and a mystery orchid that hasn't bloomed for me yet, so it's eluding naming so far.

Below are some of the pictures that I've taken of my babies in bloom.  Click on each thumbnail to see a larger image.

 

Paphiopedilum Red Glory "Crimson Halo" S/CSA x Ruby Mist "Vini Peacock"
