amazing orchids

Both of these orchids are from a botanical garden nearby us . . . the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, FL. A wonderful place to visit and walk among the flowers and tropical plants. 

The dark ruby orchid is one I purchased in their garden shop, and the lighter pink one, my friend Paula gave me as a gift! I planted them together in a large pot and this is the first time they are blooming together. There's another view in Extra Photos . . . ♥ Magnificent orchids!
