Welcome to both of you in Ontario. I too like Cloud's and ordered 7 plants a few weeks ago. They all are doing well. Wish they were closer.

Southern ontario....myself being one. Are you a member of an orchid club, if not I would highly encourage you to check out the nearest one to you. There is also a large show coming up the end of the month at RBG, and there will be several vendors there, probably including clouds. You are very disciplined, I also love clouds, and have attended their sales weekends, however I never seem to leave there without a new dozen or 15 plants. Hope you can get to the show.

I made it to the RBG show and managed to *only* walk away with 7 new orchids! 6 were from clouds and they were only 5 bucks/bones a pop! My apartment looks like a jungle. I've considered re-homing some of my generic houseplants to make room. You know you're an addict when...

Oh and I also walked away with an RBG membership! haha

My Tillandsia xerographica is slowly shooting out a flower stem!

I absolutely loved the displays because I got to see orchids I've never seen live before. The orchids were absolutely stunning.

You won't regret it. You'll learn lots and have the opportunity to trade/buy/sell plants and divisions at very good prices. Glad that you enjoyed the show. It was the first time in 4 years that I missed it :(, too much going on.

Here is the list of my newest additions. The tolu. is the only one in bloom.

Blc. Lucento de Oro 'Bullion'
C. forbesii
Den. (Comet King 'Akatsuki' x Nagasaki) x Upin Red 'Asahi'
Dendrobium hercoglossum
Epi. nocturnum
Pot. Makaha Enchantress 'Wine Bright'
Tolumnia Jairak Rainbow x Catherine Wilson

I really should take photos of all my plant pets. Unfortunately, I dropped my camera a few weeks back while trying to take a picture of this amazing frog and now the lens won't come out (true story!). BOO! I'll work on the camera situation! haha
