Bill, yes - I do prefer to buy at shows /open house. It is simply fun. I make some exceptions, I don't think I ever got a bad plant from Andy's Orchids ordering from their website.
Carol, looking good!! I like Katrin! Talking to her a few years ago, I realized she comes from the region of Germany I grew up in. ( same dialect) And of course - she knows her plants!
Kathy, I got the Neostylis actually from the Cal - Orchid table and size-wise - have a look at my loot picture. They are not huge, I will see if they are blooming size already. But they are very nice sturdy plants.
