Given that the daytime temperature is in the low 20's (F) and it feels every bit like winter here in Maryland, I take great delight in having orchids in bloom at this time of the year. One variety that I am especially proud of is Brascidostele Gilded Tower 'Mystic Maze'. It is one serious hybrid, having been derived from plants in the genera Ada, Brassia and Odontoglossum, all of which are members of the larger Oncidium group of South American orchids. Those of you familiar with orchid species may be able to detect some of the Brassia "spider orchid" traits in this hybrid's flowers, which, while pretty, do not have a fragrance.
I hope you enjoy these photos. Happy 2018 to you and yours!

That's the most spectacular orchid I've seen so far.
Nice work.
