Orchids on a Balcony. The trials, tribulations, joy and fun of growing plants on a balcony in a little town in Africa. Friday, February 7, 2014. Not so much "balcony" any more. and other tales. At the end of November last year, Senior Management and I moved home, from flat-with-a-balcony to house-with-a-garden. This now somewhat negates the title of this blog, but I don't see why that can't just be the name of the blog anyway - it's where this madness started - so I'm keeping it! Orchids. in a garden.

Back in October 2011, I received three small Stanhopea. Plants as part of an order from Plantae. They've been quietly growing away for the past couple of years. One of them has finally decided to do something "useful" and put out some flowers! The particular species that has assented to put on a show is Stanhopea whittenii.
