Very nice!
When decorating, you should always have an odd number in an arrangement. For instance, three pillows on the sofa, etc. You have accomplished that with your orchids!

They're ALL gorgeous!!
Yes, groups of threes or fives.They don't have to be the same, they just have to coordinate. . .so really you're two short of a complete set!
I just ordered one from Oak Hills Gardens. . .a little one.  But it's coming with quite a few traveling companions. . .ur, around eight!

Ramon, your twins are just little babies! Give them a chance.  They're all gorgeous. This one has been on my wish list for a long time.

I know, when I bought them they were Near Flowering Size... I was not even expecting them to bloom within th efirst year  I was/am just impressed by the size of the new one... really, I had never seen a Mini mark that big (ok, ok, I have to admit I have not seen many of the at all  )
Since my two twins came with two other twins (2 X Doritaenopsis Purple Martin 1 or 2 years to flower) I am just lookikng forward whether my friend come again with a HUGE Purple Martin

Nice, Ramon. The best gifts do come in small packages.
