Developing pouches

I can definitely see a nice and full pouch on Paphiopedilum armeniacum II now:



It looks like it is wrapped into petals around. Wondering how long before they will unfold. The color is nice and bright yellow already...

Paphiopedilum micranthum bud started to show some pink color and veining and pouch is rounding too:



This one has shorter spike and bud is nodding down more. Would be nice to have them both in bloom together.

Paphiopedilum emersonii II

Paph emersonii II has a bit larger leaf span than the first one, although it didn't flower yet.
Now I hope it started the bud:



Or they are just smallish leaves, I can never tell at this stage...

Lc. Love Knot 'Carmela's Blue'

This is a sad picture of dried out and wrinkled Lc. Love Knot 'Carmela's Blue'.



Together with bunch of small catt. seedlings that I got last fall, it was accidentally left for a while in the place where heating vent would blow the hot air on them. The seedling were just doubles that I planned to trade anyways, but this one was one and only.
I thought I will loose it too, but just noticed the small nub of new pseudobulb starting:



It might still survive, although will probably take years to come into a good shape.

Paph. malipoense update

One month passed since I noticed beginning of the spike and it didn't go much further, although it looks a bit more like a bud start then just two smallish leaves.

Phalaenopsis fasciata 'Shaffers'

After one successful flowering my Phal. fasciata 'Shaffers' tried to produce couple more buds on different spikes, but they all wilted not developed, I guess, because of too low humidity for it.
Finally it probably thought to itself: "Forget it!" and decided to turn its energy somewhere else.
So, now it is getting a new leaf:




And a new root on the other side:



I hope when the summer comes (and our summers are usually pretty hot and humid), it will try to bud again and maybe succeed...
