'Tis the season--What have you got blooming?

This was inspired by Antone's pretty Hoya post.

My list is N. pimienta, N. mariposa, Begonia thelmae, Sansaverias spp, and a new one--Dischidia geri. Had not realized this would put flowers, but they are tiny, cute white bell-shaped little things. Unfortunately, every single one of these is in a hard-to-reach location, so no pics.

But what have you got in flower? And pics, please.

Oh c'mon Solly!! I'll help you with the Dischidia flowers. They all have the little umbell 5 petal flowers.

Here's some of my flowers...

Almost all of my bromeliads are either in bloom, just got done blooming, or getting ready to bloom within' the week. All of my peperomias are blooming as well.

Forgot two--My pep caperata is also blooming, as is the Dischidia spp Antone sent me!

EDIT: Hey Antone, what is that second reddish Dischidia?

This is one of Antone's. It's the first of AT LEAST three that are or will be blooming.

That is Dischidia hirsuta "Red Leaf".

I've got one of my mini Neoregelia cultivar going into bloom (bad time to not have a camera!!), a couple Vrieseas including "Charolette" and splendens, a trailing African Violet cultivar with pretty little white flowers, as well as a slew of peps blooming such as my Pep. caperata cultivar, Pep. hernandifolia, and a Pep. species from Ecuador.

Hey gary1218, any chance I can borrow that pic for use on the plant swap website to show Neoregelia blooms?

The N. mariposa in my viv is getting ready to bloom in the next week or so, i'll put up some pics when it does.

I've got:

Its a Fittonia flower. Its gives one, losses it by the next day, then keeps giving others on a daily basis, been blooming for over a week, and the plant now has a second spike.

My Haraella odorata orchid. It just lost this bloom, but its got two new blooms on the way. This will be its first simultaneous bloom!!!

This AV still only has this one flower, but I think I see more on the way.

And this one just opened up today. My Anubias barterii.

I love this one no matter how run of the mill it is.
