We went there yesterday and I was telling my girl friend how pretty those green ones are and pretty reasonably priced too, although prices went up compared to last year's.

Never thought about orchids being in Costco's. Now that is a beautiful "bouquet" of orchids. Love that kindda' lime green. Guess they have a lot of Cyms. in Ca. Thanks for the pic.

Yes I just loved the color of this one - and the small (for a cym) flowers and somewhat pendant spikes - not what you usually see in the box and warehouse stores.
Marissa don't know how much they were down your way? Here they were $19 - not too bad for a multispike cym - saw one in home depot (not this particular one, nice dark noid cym, multi spike) for $35  |

They were $14-$15 last year. I bought a few for my girl friend, before I got hooked on orchids. Now she gets nothing from me  . Chids at HD are ridiculously expensive and they just let them die. They don't even put them on sale even if they're already dying. They just stick them under the benches.  |

hm - don't remember how much they were at costco in the past tho I am sure I have bought one a few years ago - still think the price was good at $19 - might go back for another  don't know where I'd put another at the moment tho, but I am sure I could work that out!
bought a cym at HD a few years ago - I'm sure it wasnt $35! but thats the only chid I have got there - never have anything good otherwise at the one near me. |

Gorgeous cym!! I'm been wanting a small green one for a while. I saw one at a garden center over the holidays that was stunning. Compact grower with long,pendant, green flowered spikes. Awesome, but it was 40€.....

White Rabbit. That is sooooo beautiful. I like the semi pendant form it has. If they ever have chids at Costco here they are mostly phals and rather beatup looking. I have never seen one worth taking home with me.
The pic of what looks to be a show is also very nice.
