What have I bought - Orchid Board

Today was pay day, so I stopped in at a small plant market near my school. I bought this for 40 baht. That is about $1.30 U.S.D. At this price I could be coming home with a new orchid every day.

I'm guessing it is some type of Dendrobium.

Really pretty!

And what a price... as you say at that price you could just keep coming home with new ones!

I couldn't help myself. I came home with another three today. If only they were more expensive they would be easier to resist.

I know what you mean, if they were that cheep near me I would be bringing them home all the time. Oh well... arn't Orchids addictive!

Yes, it's a beautiful dendrobium, a hard cane. Wish I could buy them that cheap, one like that would cost me about $AU30.00!

Ooh, gorgeous. I love the delicate colouring of that second one especially.
