New NOID Mini Phals
Hey guys, some advice here, please...
Today at the grocery store, I found a tray of tiny miniature phalinopsis'. There were pure white ones, purple ones, and light purple ones with dark spots on the flowers. they are all in about one inch pots, and come with a ceramic pot for EURO 6.99, which is a little less than $10. The problem is, they all have a green layer of algae on top of the sphagnum they are potted in. Other than that, there are many that seemed in good health.
Would you fork out your hard earned cash for these cute little things? My instinct says if I had one to instantly re-pot it in sphagnum, perhaps spray with listerine, and see if they live. What do you think?
