Yes, and those ca 6 Orchids are found in Trader Joe's, local Supermarkets, Big Box Stores and such.
If one wants to see other Orchids, species and wonderful hybrids alike, I would always recommend visiting Orchid nurseries and walk through Orchid Shows, so you can see what's out there, besides those big box Orchids. ( some of those can be very pretty too....)
Walking through the greenhouses of Waldor Orchids, Silva Orchids (both in NJ) Oak Hill years ago, (Chicago), Hausermann (Chicago), Parkside in PA and truly most fortunate me - Ecuagenera in Ecuador, are great experiences. All of those nurseries sell online and at Shows. And there is Andy's Orchids with loads of wonderful species. Looking for Slipper Orchids - there is Glen Decker of Piping Rock Orchids (Galway, NY) and so many many more!! My beautiful C Chocolate Drop 'Kodama' came from Odoms Orchids years ago and I have picked up a few gems from Carter and Holmes.
So many good vendors!!
