Beautiful plants you've got!

Just face it, you and I and everyone else here, we're hopeless addicts to orchids!

Have you considered getting a job at this way-too-nearby-greenhouse?

Clearly, you're gonna need some extra pocket money with that sort of greenhouse proximity.

G'luck

Hi Dorothy,
Sorry to hear about your thonsoniana

. That's one I just got plus a Kieth Goldson. I have a Smbl Doug Lace HCC/AOS % a hybrid Mickeys' Freckles on order for April (my birthday present) I havea very young Sclc Crucan God x Schm Splendida 'Roberto' AM/AOS )no idea what it'll look like. Hope you get a new thomsoniana to replace your old one. Paul Storm has really healthy plants. You might want to wait till the weather breaks where your are though. He is in Sarasota, FL and sent mine bare root. I have all posted in my gallery except for the cruzan god.

Awesome Lorraine

I saw the schombos in your gallery .. They are very healthy and happy

My 2 hybrids are Schombocatt Cinnamon Tower and Schombolaelia Monte Bello

I am going to wait on the thomasoniana for the warmer weather .. for sure !

Have you bloomed your two hybrids yet? Curious as what they look like. Every hybrid looks different.

Any pictures???
Let me know if you need contact infor for Paul Storm. I believe his prices are reasonable and very healthy plants.

No blooms yet - but they are beginning to spike !

I'll post photos when they are in bloom

I picked up these hybrids from Eli Santiago's son, Eli Jr. from Puerto Rico ..

I have a serious problem too! I've bought 10 phals in the last two months!! I'm even designing a new bench to keep them on! I might need some power tools too... hmm lol. Anyone got any good wooden orchid bench plans?

Hi gang!
I'm now to the orchid forum and as I speak, my other half is on his way from Hilo with two big boxes of goodies that I have to figure out how to grow. Needless to say, my dreams of becomiong a hand model are over.

We live on Oahu and have more orchids than I would like to admit. Gearing up for the Kunia Orchid Show in about a week and a half. We even got TV spots to promote on the news. I have 1 week to lose 30 pounds. I think I can do it.

Nice to meet all of you.

my other half is a carpenter so when we need more benches, he builds them but we cannot walk around very comfortably.
