That is so encouraging
Wow friends please give 10 names as per your choice, they all count. May be we can have a list of names that every collector must have in his collection. Orchids cost money sometimes an arm and a leg so it is important to know where to put our money.
All information gather and processed will be made public for free access. So waiting for more reply from spirited people.
I thank you all again in advance.
