Yep! Just went to my first meeting there last week! Pretty impressive stuff! |

The one I think is like yours is the last one I got and I think it is getting a new spike. The one I use in my avatar I think has the peloric thing going on. I did not know that at the time I bought it. I just gave the 2 that were normal to my sister and my mother.

Yes! That's identical to the last mini phal I purchased. In the store, it looked sort of green, but once I got *it home, it looks more of a cream, except in certain light. I love the colors and the contrast though! I think mine may be growing another branch.
Love all of them! So pretty! |

I never knew Orchid Societies existed until a few years ago and then I was very shocked at how many are in Ohio.
I also have finally squeezed in my last orchid. If I want more, I need to build an addition to the house. :| |

Leafmite, I was really impressed with what everybody in the society is growing. I got to see a Monn. Millenium Magic 'Witchcraft in bloom, in person for the first time. There were some draculas, paphs, vandas, etc... Really beautiful specimens!

I love seeing all the different orchids, too. Just wait until the spring show season! I love seeing all the displays from the societies and vendors.
I want the 'Witchcraft' but I don't have space. I have it bookmarked, anyway, though.

I thought it was like one you posted earlier, and I had just gotten mine. I had a terrible time deciding on what color and I stopped myself from getting another. Another white and dark purple spotted a bit different than the one I have it was also calling to me..........I was strong. |

hahaha my husband has began to get into orchids as well. Every orchid I own was given to me by him but these days, they're a little more to him than just plants  All my time spend here and with my plants must be rubbing off on him. I rescued a beautiful phal today and he carried it all the way home while balancing his bike with one hand (I was walking home so he decided he wants to as well. Walked over half an hour on a nice sunny afternoon). Didn't let me hold it at all hahaha ...received a lot of complements on the
plant from passersby and looked quite proud with that gorgeous orchid |

I bought two 'Witchcraft' at different times because I thought the first one was going to die. lol! The second one is in bud right now and the first is probably going to throw a spike soon, so it was really cool to see one in full bloom at the meeting.
Don't we also have a big show coming up in Dayton or Cincinnati? I thought I read about one at an art museum coming up fairly soon? |
