Love the flowers!!They've got such a nice shape and color. On the second picture, is that bunch of white stuff beneath the plant actually its roots? If that's the case, that's a lot of roots!!
When I read the title of your thread I first thought that you were coming back or going on a Caribbean holiday.... That would have been nice too!

Thanks Lecent

Yes Camille...those are roots!
The plant is just amazing!!! I love it

Great color combination on these. I've never seen this one before.

There's nothing like bringing home new orchids. Enjoy!

WOW!!! That is just gorgeous. I want one! If you can post another picture of the whole plant or as much of it as possible I would really appreciate it. I can't really get a clear view because the second one is kind of dark. Is the plant mounted? I just love it! Good find!

Hi Jenn

Sorry for the bad picture...I was just walking around the room clicking and not paying too much attention

Here's a better picture of this beauty...the mount is cork and about 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" and those long beautiful roots hanging down are about 18" or so.

I bought it from Plantio de Orquidea:
Plantio la Orquídea - Home page

They are having a big 2008 FALL OPEN HOUSE AND SALE on Fri Nov 14 and Sat Nov 15, both days open 9:00am-4:00pm

The other vendors will be Blue Pagoda, Michael's Bromeliads, Canaima Orchids, Tropiflora Nursery, Fender's Flora and Venice Orchids.

Plantio is located at:

3480 Tallevast Rd in Sarasota (same driveway as Tropiflora)

Maybe you can have him set one aside for you?
