Default Orchid sighting! Which ones should I get?

My local big box store, which has never carried anything more than Phals, got in a shipment of 'exotic' orchids this week!!

I'm excited but restraining myself until I do some research. Any recommendations?

I tend to agree, one of each. If this is a rear sighting for you as it would be for me, I would want one of each I didn't currently have. We never have these! I like the Nodosa, Den. Aggregatum and the red Cattleya.

You could buy one of each and gift them later. If you have the space, go for it!

Check the actual tags if you can and google each name. That looks like a nice variety! I think I will check my Lowe's today to see if they have any.

Definitely get the nodosa! I have it and it's in bloom right now. Every night when the lights go out my room fills with a beautiful perfume. From a single flower!!!
Also I lost the tag. I know it's a B. Little Stars, but any other info from the tag would be greatly appreciated!

I vote Den little green apple look alike... or you know, all.

The Latouriate dens are easy to grow, and if it's den little green apples, they are supposed to flower throughout the year.

I'm planning to move soon and I've put a moratorium on buying orchids... I've always wanted den little green apples... let me live vicariously through you!
