Another BLOOM

GOSH it was -44C with the windchill this morning and warmed up a little through the day and here my Phal Jack Crawford orchid was in full bloom - WOW!!!



I think if it was me I'd have stayed in my bud as it's slightly chilly next to the windows - or maybe that's why it spiked and bloomed this year??? This baby is about 2" across and a lovely majenta colour and I know it hadn't bloomed for a few years now!

I'm not sure but usually the heavier substance flowers last longer and it depends on the conditions - which aren't ideal in my apt. Some last from one week to up to six months (my every faithful Phal equestris lasts the longest).
