Can't wait to see it!

Yes, a picture please!

A pink Leptotes, how nice!

Lovely purple! Did it come mounted or did you do that?

Good looking plants Kathy. I have one with some of the same family makeup as in your Hawkinsara Koolau Sunset, with SLC Mae Hawkins in it. Slc (Mae Hawkins x Golden Wax) x Blc Chocolate Sun has been a reluctant bloomer although it develops lots of new growth, it just opened one bloom a couple days ago.

My new loot.
Paph. Wossners Bellarmi
Paph. Wossners Vietnam Gold
Paph. Wössner China Moon
Paph. Wössner Vietnam Love
Paph. Ma Belle
Paph. Dollgoldi
Paph. Fumi's Delight

Dend. Love Memory 'Fizz'
Phal. amabilis 'variegated'

I received Phal veitchiana 'Bedford' AM/AOS x stuartiana 'Harford' with the lovely dark green and silver mottled leaves as a bonus form Forestview Gardens, much appreciated. Phal x veitchiana is a natural cross of equestris and schilleriana.

Ken, your new loot is calling my name Especially that little variegated one in the front!

Here's my new Den, I'm quite in love with it :hearts:


....I keep getting an error when trying to post pics...I'll have to try again later.

If you keep having a problem, Steven, write me a c-mail and we will work it out. Two minds-better than one! Or maybe, a mind is a terrible thing to waste, or something like that!

Susan were you talking about the Leptotes? Well it doesn't matter since all that are mounted came mounted.

Ken, those are beauties and I agree that Paph amabilis 'variegated' is so wonderful! And those great leaves on the Phal. Fun to think about crossing little equestris and big schilleriana. They sure do have interesting imaginations out there in hybridizer land.

I put a post up on the Cubit's Cubit to see if anyone else is having the problem, pics wont post there either so its something with the site I guess.

I uploaded a couple pics of nobile

Lovely looking, healthy plants, Ken!

Nice nobile!!!!!

on both Ken and Steven.

Thank-you!

I've got my buying shoes on again Just placed an order for 3 with Paramount
They're just getting back to me with the final shipping quote

Let us know!

Hehehe, I'm ordering:

Zygo 'Winter Sprite' (no pic)
Vuylstekeara Camouflage ‘Everglades Passion’
Miltoniopsis Zorro ‘Yellow Delight’

Hey Steven, you're playing with code now??? I'm duly impressed!
Beautiful variety in your choices. I wish I didn't kill miltonopsis....I almost tried again recently.

I brought up the window for the BBcode and gave it a shot It makes the posts look so much tidier.
The miltonopsis is supposed to be quite fragrant, not sure if they all are or not but I really like the yellow. I've been dieing for quite a while to get a Vuyl, was going to get Plush, but this one distraced me and the discription said it's an easy one to grow And as for the Zygo, I figured if I'm making an order I might as well add it in too.

Love that Miltoniopsis!!

Thanks Susan and Kathy!

Thanks for sharing your new acquisitions, since I am on a very limited budget until my kids are out of college, then....
I will be visiting my son at Pomona in CA, and am already looking for orchid growers out there (and saving $). How difficult is it to transport plants when traveling via air?

Depends on how determined you are! Todd Boland takes shopping bags of them home when he goes to Paramount. I would stick to one and buy small plants!
