Wow! Just came across this thread and realized just how bad this addiction is!
I'm now up to 140+ and I just ordered ten small vanda-type plants.
They'll be coming in the next week or so!
I've decided to stop counting them... although they'll still be counted in my database program.

Sue, counting them is what keeps us from going overboard. WOuld you have ordered those ten had you known you had 140+?? I don't think I could ever sneak in 140+ past my family. They'd have me committed, orchid collecting is not normal to them.

 Did you actually just suggest that there's something to keep me from going overboard? 
That ship sailed long ago, Tin
I knew how many I have when I ordered the ten...
I'm just saying I won't be so obsessed about keeping track of every single one, by number.
I say that just to rationalize my addiction

Wow, I feel as though my collection is seriously wanting! I have 60 orchids at home and about 40 at work (not all those at work are personally mine but I am responsible for caring for them so they seem like my babies!)
