Phalaenopsis
I also included a photo of red crown of thorns. This is from a decorative display at a wedding I attended last Sunday.

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day - April 2014
This is a rather brief GBBD post. I was busy over the last week and didn't take any pictures. This afternoon, on arriving home, I realized that it is GBBD. I took my camera and was only able to get one photo of a phalaenopsis before darkness fell.

Phalaenopsis - Dtps Sogo Golden 'A07867'
Probably the most common and popular orchid in temperate regions, phalaenopsis orchids aren't kept as much as hard-cane dendrobiums, vandas, cattleyas and epidendrums in the Tropics.
I don't have much experience with phals. I've tended to stay away from them in favour of hard-cane dendrobiums.
This little doritaenopsis is a recent impulse purchase. The foliage was damaged but it had a keiki and two developing spikes.
One spike produced three flowers and the other only two. Not very floriferous but the medium-small yellow flowers look nice on the compact plant.
Keep phals out of direct sunlight and fertilize lightly but regularly. The potting media must be free draining but never allow it to completely dry out.

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day - August 2013
After several months of never quite getting the timing right due to several factors, I am finally participating in Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day for the first time. I guess this makes me a veteran garden blogger now. Hehe.
To see more of what is blooming in other gardens around the world please visit Carol at May Dreams Garden. Happy gardening!
This hardy compact cattleya blooms several times a year. More spikes are developing. It puts on quite a show.
The smallish flowers fade into a lighter pink as they age.
