Although many said that phalaenopsis demand alot of care and would never survive in Lahore,I succeeded to get two out of two to flower this year.This one flowered in February last year when I imported a lot of a few hundred.This year it started flowering on 15th of April and is expected to bloom for another couple of days. It was left in neglect in 0C in december to full sun untill april.They are quite hardy.
Adenium:
I love this single Adenium.It is known as Black Edition.Although I have a double black edition as well but this one is my favorite.Grafting it tomorrow on large caudex along with red and white flowers on the same plant.Expect to see fireworks in August/September when they bloom on large caudex.

The orchid is a beauty, how hard is it to grow it here in lahore and from where did you order it?

I bought some 80 odd adenium caudex in 18'' pots from Karachi. Grafting all of them with multi color adeniums. Can't wait for august/September when there are red,white,pink and black bunches of flower on the same plant.Also awaiting Gloriosa lily to bloom.Any idea when they'd bloom?
