I was at the Carter and Holmes Open House yesterday, and walked away with a Miltonia moreliana division, a Brassolaeliocattleya Waianae King 'Orchidheights' AM/AOS x 'Kosaki', and a retard. Well, to be specific, a Paphiopedilum delenatii with a deformed flower blooming 6 months out of season. When I brought it to their attention, they said that they would usually just compost it to avoid spending time and money just to find out whether or not it's a genetic abnormality, so I also got it for free. I already have a "normal" delenatii, so this if more or less for curiosity's sake.

Well I'm no longer a virgin (oh goodness to much information ) I just received on Fri my very first mail order. So very exiting, my list is probably boring for allot of you but I need things easier to grow.

Pot. Afternoon Delight

I have the C. Jose Marti 'Mother's Favorite'. It is one of the first orchids I ordered online. It was a seedling and nearly died during my outbreak of black rot but has recovered nicely even if a couple of years were added until it will bloom. The flowers should be spectacular (and at least something will give me flowers for Mother's Day).

I understand...that is what I tend to do with plants/orchids I love. I have four angraecum didieri.

Well this Jose Marti that I got is huge it's in a 8.5" pot and trying to come out of it. It has 2 sheaths but I am thinking they may drop, I hope not but I won't hold my breath. I only paid $20.00 for it and it was suppose to come out of pot but it is in a pot lucky me. I think that is a pretty good deal for a plant this nice.

Nice deal!
