Pot. Achung Yoyo 'Little Goldfish' - free to good home
This bifoliate was a Trader Joe's purchase sometime in the past year. It's now reblooming after growing on my windowsill, but it got rather leggy growing there. It needs more light, maybe, or maybe it's just a taller Cattleya than I want on my windowsill. The blooming lead has tipped over under its own weight. I'll mail it out after Thanksgiving to whoever want to pay shipping for it. The newest lead is about 8 inches long. With the flowers, that ends up being about a foot long.

Very nice
The Trader Joe in Silverlake never has any interesting orchid like this. Where did you buy yours? Curious

I'd give it an excellent home! I had this plant years ago, but it met its downfall during a terrible slug plague. (Along with 60% of my collection!) Now that I'm slug-free, would love to try it again.

Flex, I probably got this one in Pasadena on Arroyo. The one in Pasadena on Lake and Del Mar usually has more variety than that one, though. And the one in South Pas has tons of plants.
InspirChid, it's yours. PM me your shipping address. I'll be in touch that way about shipping dates and cost.

That said, none of the 4 TJ's I frequent usually carries Catts. Mostly Oncidiums, Phals, and Cymbidiums. Lately a few Paphs here and there. Every once in a while a few Dens phals. There was a Den kingianum at the Lake x Del Mar location yesterday, but that's only the second one I've seen in a TJ's in the year I've been here.

Haven't heard from Elliott, despite a PM yesterday. This plant is losing its flowers and I'd like to ship it out. Anyone else living in the warmer states want it?

If Elliott doesn't respond and no one else wants it, I'll take it. I'd be gifting it though, so maybe someone else wants it more.
