I went a few years only having bought a couple at TJ's, tho a kind OB member sent me several divisions during that period. But I am pretty low on space (ha! Yes, we fail to consider that hopefully are plants will be getting bigger! - and some will do so quickly!), so I think I need to be careful and choosey about any additions.

Every now and then I tell myself to stop buying orchids because I am running out of room. Somehow I always find a way to make more room.

If I get a new one an old one has to find a new home. I really don't have the time for more than what I already have.

I've definitely become VERY picky about what I buy, but the orchids keep on coming. *sigh*

I just stopped myself from buying a very pretty green antelope type den noID. Got it as far as the checkout register then said "no" when I checked the price ($25 for a noID!). Did I mention it was a very pretty green?

That probably doesn't count. I'm expecting a Ascf. x Neo mid next week.
