Those are gorgeous,especially the yellow.I've been looking for that color for years.I have whites and pinks,but my pinks are lighter in color than yours.

Hi, I LIKE your yellow epis a LOT! I am in bayarea, California. If you are willing to trade the alchemy or willing to sell one, please do let me know as well :-)

I just started collecting epis. I especially want to collect yellow epis.

Those are gorgeous blooms! Your yellow plant ( and all the rest of them) must be a happy fellow! It was bought as a cutting last year and bloomed this year...holy smokes! lol

Yellows have been the slowest growing epi's for me.....congrats on some gorgeous plants!

Your plants are gorgeous! I've just started a small epiphyllum collection, it's hard to get started in the UK as they aren't readily available, I'm enjoying searching for them though. Great photos thanks for sharing them with us.
