Hot Lips










A Cymbidium with long forgotten name. I call her Hotlips due to her full fiery but sultry bottom lips!

She's a wild thing with a few spires this year!

Wild thing, you make my heart sing.... Is that what they are singing because they do look like they are singing something.


LOVE that bottom photo! You must frame that.

They are also singing, "Good Morning Sunshine!" Perriette :)
No hanging space on the walls here, that's what a blog is for!

Yes sit out for coffee and often breakfast, especially during the warmer months. All weekend meals too KJ! No ... the birds sing to me silly :)

Where is everyone? All this perky singing may have scared them away.

Which perky song are you singing Perriette? That could be a clue ...

WHAAAAAA please don't eat my orchids Ces! Jack thinks they are a yucky flower to eat for a very good reason ...

Thank you Hardwax :)

kj said...

what does Tsup mean?

is it a bodily fluid???

Anonymous said...

KJ, it is a compliment to slurp your food in Japan but not in Australia. Slopping bodily fluids around at a tea party is bad manners Ces!

Outrageous orchid Anon - your cymbid collection RULES!!! (Howd I miss this post for so long???? Where have I been???? Chasing my 'imaginary' tail again I guess....)

The Cymbidiums are ruling this year Lavender! Hhehehe. I keep falling behind on others' blogs too but you are working out your tail with bike riding! HAHA!!

Ces Adorio said...

"Tsup" is not a body fluid, it is an onomatopoeia for a kiss! It is the sound made when pucking your lips and sucking a little air.

How did we get from these beautiful orchids to bodily fluids, pucking and sucking? Oh my! This blog may be a little to racey for me.
Anon, These are breathtaking. I love your photos. Thank you for sharing.

Ces, thank you for giving a detailed description to us and those under 18 of how to do a "Tsup"!

Red Mojo, I agree! HOW DARE my visitors turn talking about gorgeous, unadulterated orchids into a repulsive conversation? The name "hot lips" is completely innocent! HAHAHHHAAA. Pleased you are enjoying the Orchid Show :)
