I would never give away a Dendro. I wouldn't wish those on my worst enemy! Now, on the other hand, Miltonias are good to go.

I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that orchid culture is so different. When we all start out, it is wonderful to have that mentor (if you're really lucky), or a place to go (like this forum) for answers. We all remember what it was like in the beginning and how much a helping hand meant. What's the saying, 'Pay it forward'?
Anyway, I have a give away peloric phal if anyone is interested....

Suzanne, it's yours.
A peloric is a deformed flower. This has bloomed three times for me and I don't think it's going to change.
