There is a lady in my office who wants to know if there are any more cattleyas available. Good bloomers, robust. Also wants to know when are you leaving NC?

OK. I will tell her.
Sorry I was out of office for a while.
Anyway returned to find a huge battered box. Looks like it was in the steerage of the Titanic.
But I found orchids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THe one in the clay pot was intact and perfect; no damage.
THe leaves were really hard like they were adept at braving the element s (read sun)
Two were intact with all the roots wound around tightly andthe last one in the plastic pot seemed to have suffered the most as it was loose in the media. It seemed to have been losing some of its roots from before and the journey did not help, but no worries...I can put him in intensive care for a while, and he will be as good as new.
Thanks a lot.
Now I will go to the PO for the MO and mail to you. I have your address.
Sorry they are all gone. I also was waiting to receive these to see what they were like, and maybe get some more; we are disappointed.
Hope you have a good voyage.
BTW, I am from that part of the world you are voyaging to. So I hope you keep well and safe on the high seas.
Thanks a million

Janet,
I'm glad they made it despite the rough treatment at the post office.
Once you get them potted back up and give them some humidity , you'll have
flowers in no time...be sure to post the pictures for me!
Where are you from? Any not - to - be - missed sights that I should look for?

Beautiful flower, Lisa, but I don't think that is Mari's Song. Mari's Song has splash petals. Here is a picture of mine when it bloomed.

Drdawg,

I am not sure. It does not match the picture of it blooming last year when Lindsey owned it. Her picture showed it looking more like yours. I thought maybe it is just because I am an orchid newbie and may not be giving it the best conditions so the color is off. Will try taking a better picture as the 2nd flower opens.
