Default New Paph...

As usual, i purchased an orchid from this month's meeting. i was told that in order to purchase from our speaker this month, we needed to order in advance. unfortunately i was too busy to do that but someone was nice enough to bulk order. Of course, I didn't bring any money, but one of the members spotted me for an orchid!!!! Woo hoo!!!!! Our speaker this month was Terry from the Orchid Zone. Here is my new addition. enjoy!!
