The February virtual competition for 2022 was again, a ‘quiet’ time for flowering orchids, but still a time to see a few more gongora and stanhopea flowers. Apart from some other unusual orchids, it is a sunny time of the year and a good flowering time for epi’s or epidendrums, of various colours. Members provided 45 wonderful flowering orchids which made for difficult decisions when voting.
