Gotta love flea markets. Yep, I was wandering around when I saw a man carrying a gorgeous oncidium. I asked him where he got it, and he pointed me in the direction of the most gorgeous orchid booth I'd ever seen. I'm talking about cattleyas bigger than my head and the most gorgeous bare-root vandas and masses of tiny oncidium flowers you've ever seen. There were two Paphs, one with HUGE flowers, and another who's flower had just fallen off, making the price go from $25 to $10. I looked at the flower, that resembled a stealth, but the tag said Paph. Red Shift x Paph. Laser. I had to have it. I also picked out a budding Vanda Pachara Delight, an orchid I've always wanted. Sooo... Check 'em out!
This orchids makes my hobby a collection.
Adorable buds!
Look at those roots!
I LOVE pattern-leaf Paphs. (Say that ten times fast)
I wasn't sure what this growth was. I know paphs spike from the top, but this looks like a spike.
My new orchids. Let me show you them.
