I have a thermometer that records highest and lowest temps and it never goes below 55-60 at night and can get up to 100 during the day if the sun is out.

Very nice! I'd love to see what you have so far. when you have a chance post some pictures in the greenhouse subforum

Well as luck would have it, I stumbled upon a beautiful large healthy M. regina. It's in spike, but probably won't hold them after shipment. I am so excited about this plant!

And that is the end of the buying for me.... this year....

The D. Aggregatum is nice I have one from Lowes as well and it is a strong grower, doubled in size in ten months!

Bulb. Worayuth White Fang
Grammatophyllum Citrinum.....uh....x2
Dendrobium Aggregatum (in a bag at Lowes)
Oncidium Splendidum x Cavendishiannum

I'm SO ashamed.

Maybe a Peristeria alata? Aka. The Dove Orchid? National flower of Panama. Almost extinct in the wild.

What have I bought recently? The short answer is "too much."

Long answer is more interesting:

From Andy's Orchids: Den. kingianum, parishii, loddigesi, canaliculatum, Angraecum didieri, Haraella ordorata, Maxillaria hennisiana (shephardii), and Onc. fuscatum (or Milt. warscewiczii)....

From Larry's Orchids and Tropicals: Phalaenopsis equestris (3 of them, but I'm only keeping one, really), and Slc. Samba Princess 'Pretty in Pink' (and some non-orchid tropicals).

I have a few more on order that should arrive this week....

BTW, this doesn't count the plants I won at the orcihd club Christmas dinner a couple of weeks ago....

I'm trying to be good until February when I can attend the Miami Valley Orchid Society show (Feb 15-16 for those who are interested), but with a noticeable lack of success....

I have a couple of plants coming from Seattle Orchids:
Koellensteinia Ionoptera
Cattleya dowiana v Rosita
Today I visited Clown Alley to take advantage of their 20% off sale:
Dendrobium goldshchmidtanum (in bloom)
Laelia purpurata v schusteriana
Dend. wassillii
(An odd hybrid originally from a local grower and member of HOS)
Slc. Jeweler's Art x C. Gail Gerter
I can find pics of the Slc. but the search engine always asks if I am looking for C. Gail Porter but then does not come up with anything useful.
I have my eye on a couple others on eBay. I need to make up my mind soon.

Here are two plants that I bought recently. One is an Oncidium and the other is a Neofinetia falcata.

The Oncidium, I bought for its unusual variegated leaves.



I did not "need" to buy this Neofinetia, but it was just sitting there asking to go home and I couldn't resist. Non-orchid friends just shake their heads....
