I talked to a nice person at Motes Orchids.............they cancelled my order and I'll reorder next spring. He said one reason (other than it looked like it was going to be cold here to send) was that they were just getting a new shipment in and they wanted to send me nice ones. He said what they had left was not as nice. I told him I appreciated that. Sooooo............I'll order when weather is nice again.
