First Online Order Arrival

[Kevinator]

Hello everyone!

I recieved my first orchids from any online catalog from Al's Orchid Greenhouse! I finally got a tall rack to hang them on!!!!!! Here they are!


The orchid collection, renovated for the new residents.


Gongora tricolor (this one I already had before the order)


Stanhopea tricornis (had a flower spike but dried during shipping ) This was a good orchid for $25! I didn't expect it to be this big!


Coryanthes vasquezii. A pure white coryanthes. I hope I can keep it alive.


Coryhopea Red Martian. Really unique flowers and has very healthy bulbs with three new growths.


Last but not least, Stanhopea wardii. This often rejected species has large, yellow horned flowers and a citrus fragrance.

I now have a humidifier next to the fan. Any comments, questions, care tips etc. will be gladly accepted.

really nice set up, with lots of room to grow.....in more ways than one !

Its not clear if you have trays underneath. I use lids from storage boxes, the biggest, from IKEA. They are cheap and work really well.

Nice plants of varieties that are alien to me. Would have loved to see the picture of the one with yellow flowers!

To everyone

The Psychopsis in the first picture has been put on quite a few older threads. Care and history of the orchid is in my showcase page. It is right now in an 8 inch pot with a coarse bark mixture. The variety is Psychposis Butterfly var. Alba 'Yellow Canary'. As Norman's Orchids put it " Rare, beautiful clone of the majestic Psychopsis, always an eye catcher anywhere."
