Three new additions today:

- Paph Druid Spring (primulinum 'Lunar Glow' x druyi 'Bold Stripe')
In spike now, with another one coming soon. A very large plant that seems to be growing well. I'm excited to see what it does under my lights. Photo here if of the actual plant, and then other picture I found on the Internet of exactly the same cross (from Orchid Zone). I have been watching this plant for a while and finally decided to buy it today.

- Phrag. schlimii ('Powder Puff' x 'Humdinger')
I'm a species guy, so I had to cross this one off the list! It's... cute. Will stay nice and small.

Phrag. Carol Kanzer 'Flamingo' (schlimii x pearcei)
- I liked the grassy growth habit of this plant, and each of the two active spikes also have a side-spike. And lots of new growth coming. I think it will be easy to grow and take off divisions to trade. This actual plant has an award, but I don't really care much about those.
