I was speaking moreso to Farley (one who didn't get one.) See page prior...

Phew, I'm trying to cure my podangis envy here, good to know I don't have a heartbreaker on the way. That is much more in line with my fantastic experiences with Marlow's previously. Thanks!!

I'm still thinking about getting one, but I also had a sudden idea of a cool place in my house where I could load up on Pleurothallids instead. Decisions decisions...

This one grows on the warm side... so put the Pleurothalids in the cool place and this one with the warmer ones. Win, win.

True, that would certainly be the best option, but I am a bit short on funding for that.

Your Pondangis Envy just gave you a sudden case of the jitters. Gold Country does still have them BTW.

Will do!!! My front porch is going to be 90 degrees tomorrow, so I will be checking frequently.

Yeah, mine is supposedly gonna be here by Friday as well. And I'm quite a ways further away than you. Good thing it's a warm grower, right?

Yes indeed. You'll want to follow Roberta's advice. Track it, and check your porch frequently.
This has been such a wild weather year. For us there's just no predicting what the weather is going to do from week to week.
We had our last snow on May 12! Ordering orchids is such a crap-shoot. I do overnight or 2nd day delivery whenever possible.
