Talking Brassavola little stars

While at my local Lowes the other day I went to look to see if the year's first orchid shipments had arrived and boy was I suprised. The whole plant section was nothing but orchids. Therewere a lot of dendrobium nobiles and baggie orchids. For some reason I am extremely attracted to baggie orchids. I love to look through them. It is like Christmas day. Opening and wondering what is inside of the presents. However, I was really suprised to see a brassavola little stars. I instantly fell in love with it and had to have it. I held on tightly while I was looking through the other inventory. There were a lot more that I would love to have, but I chose the little stars. There were 2 little stars, but the other one was smaller and had already bloomed. Anyways, this plant has between 4-5 new growths that I hope will bloom around the smae time my digbyana blooms, so that I can cross them. I repotted it a couple of days ago and was taken back by how many live roots were in the broken down media. Here are some pictures that I took before I repotted the plant.

I too like the Better-Gro baggy orchids. The few I have gotten off the clearance rack have done wonders. If you watch, the store usually puts them on clearance 3 weeks after they arrive. I got my Brassavola Nadosa for $2 and a miltassia for the same price. It looks good, they love lots of light and grow like crazy. I consider this to be one of the orchids every body must have. Good luck.

Here are some pictures of mine. The one in the pot tipped over in the pot itself and the new growth is filling it out again. The mounted one is a piece that fell off while I was repotting. It took it a while to start growing, but now it has five or six new roots and a few new leads.
