how many "Catts" do it take to make an addiction?

I avoided most these plants in the past bec I didnt feel I could grow them. Now since joining an Orchid Society I am being bombed with "Catts". 3 at 1 meeting 5 at another and 2 more here and a few there. Bought a few too bec I can. I only had the C.acliandae which has done well and a Bc. Makai and a lowly Lowara that just sits there but wont die. I counted and smiled all the way thru the process at over 30 assorted "Catts" tioday. Ow weee Im going to be crying when they start dying.
The Orchid Society has enabled me to become more addicted to the Orchid Culture plus Ive gained about 10 lbs eating all the junk food.

I do not have room for too many more samurai bladed "Catts"... but Ill get thru these and hopefully post some nice blooms ...for both of you who manage to look at my pics thank you.

We all want to be someone special, fact is, many of us actually are.

Ill leave you with some samples of what Im growing, but post your comments on the subject and no WOW gold please

Lc Jungle Eyes


Bc Makai 'Mayumi'


Blc Amy Wakasugi


and yes most the "Catts" are Planted in Granite Chips..these are still good looking plants. What gets me about these "Catts" is how damn ugly the plants can get. If you didnt know it was going to have an awesome bloom I swear half of them look like they belong in the trash. Im trying to get over that but its very difficult. If I keep knocking off new growths trying to keep em clean that will either teach them or me.. SUBMIT!!! Resistance is Futile!!
