THEY HAVE PAPHS AND DENS AT THE GROCERY STORE!!!!!
OMG I'm freaking out... I basically live in a void of all things orchid so it really hard for my to find nice chids. Weeeelll I went to the grocery store half a block away from my place and saw that they have Paphs and Dens... OMG!!!!! SCORE!!!!! I was on my way to work so I couldnt grab them but I cant wait to go there and buy them all
I actually saw them in the window as i was walking by. I have orchid radar eyes. I haven't had a chance to check the roots yet. But I'm off tomorrow so I might go down and check them out. I have made friends with a lady that works there and I might ask her to put hem ALL aside for me... I'M SOOOOO GREEEEDY
I don't think that's so much greed as it is orchid conservation!! That's AWESOME!!! My local grocery store only has Dens and Phals, and boy do I buy a lot from them!!
All day I have wanted to tell people like "OMG they have Paphs and Dens at IGA"... but part of my thinks they will go and buy them up before me .... the other part of me thinks they will have no idea what I'm talking about. I didn't say anything to anyone cause I didn't wanna risk it. I don't want people cashing in on my FIND.
I search high and low constantly for chids WHEREVER i go cause I can only get pink and white Phals. I haven't found a place since November that carried anything other than Phals. I even call the flower shops and check places online that sometimes carry them. I go through HELL trying to find chids.
