My Kingfisher Orchids!
YAAAAY!!!!! They have arrived!!! Well, technically, they arrived yesterday, but I was too lazy to put the pics on the computer. Well, whatever, here it is!
The box.
The box with a medium sized knife. (I couldn't find the flippen scissors!)
Here is Phal. Lea Marie Salazar 'Tying Shin' This was a bonus plant, so I am extremely happy!
Here is my one of my dream orchids, the $150 Phal. Joy Spring Canary 'Rainbow World'
My cute little Phal. bellina ('Ingrid Ohh' x 'Joy')

And finally, my HUMONGOUS tetraspis 'C#1'!
Try to count how many spikes and sub-spikes there are!
Here is spike #1
Spike #2 and sub-spike #1
Spikes #3, #4, #5, and #6
Spike #7 and sub-spike #2
The whole plant this morning after up-potting and some staking.

Nice haul! A box of orchids a week, that's very very nice!
The one with all the spikes looks quite dehydrated though.

Yes, I did notice that. It's because Patrick (Kingfisher Orchids) let's them dry out a bit before shipping so that they are not sopping wet sitting in a box. It is getting perkier now, though.

Yes, $150 for the JSC 'RW'! The crazy thing is the free plant I got, LMS 'TS', which was listed as $75 on his list!

Maybe I did just a bit, but hey, if this is going to be my last order from a vendor until next spring, I need to make it worth it! I just got them yesterday, so I have nothing to do with the glossy leaves.
