Great looking plant! :) Looks a lot like mine -- 2 growths and in a net pot.

WOW very nice plant :D
mine too arrived the other day; It's mounted on a terracotta "log" Not sure I will be keeping it like this but will see how I get on with it as not easy to water and keep moist. For the moment I have soaked in a very shallow tray of water and then stood up inside a small glass vase with a bit of water at the bottom.
here is a pic.

Nice!! Where did you get it from? I'm always on the look out for new vendors!! :rofl: Unless you got it from someplace I know of. Any TCs with it? :)

Well, I had quite a large TC list because we were at a show and I had pre-ordered.

Rth. Pop City 'NN' - This was a replacement for an orchid that I purchased last year and immediately died. The vendor was nice enough to find an excellent red for me and even credited me an additional $5 towards another orchid.

Rth. Solar Flare 'Paradise' - A lovely yellow with flares. In bloom.
C. Tokyo Life - A freebie (Woot!)
Rth. Zul - A really interesting cross.
C. Circle of Life ('Hot Pants' AM/AOS x 'Sacred Heart' HCC/AOS)
C. kerrii x kerrii 'Michael' AM/AOS - in bloom and terrific!
C. nobilior v. coerulea x sib
C. quadricolor x sib
C. luteola - in sheath.
Rlc. Spanish Eyes 'Water'- a BIG bloom Orange.
Zygonisia Cynosure 'Blue Bird' - in bud.
Dendrobium unicum - because you can never have just one!
Den. brymerianum - finally I have located a mature plant at a decent price.
Den. cucumerinum - a project plant for Orchid Board.
Den. densiflorum OR chrysotoxum - He found it in the GH for me, but we aren't exactly sure which one it is until it blooms. No matter, I like them both. I don't have densiflorum and my chrysotoxum is NBS. We'll see. I got a nice discount on it.

Vanda Cherry Blossom (falcata [white] x ampullacea [china strain]) - not the usual pink kind. The china strain is yellow so the result is apricot color! Love it!

Dyakia hendersoniana - In spike! I killed the first one so I wanted to try again.
Vanda falcata ('Shutenno' x 'Koto') - got two just in case. nodding
Tubecentron Hsinying Girl - after seeing, I had to have one (so I got two).
Podangis dactyloceras - project plant for Orchid Board
Brassavola nodosa 'Remar' x 'Mas Major'
Epc. Painted Hill Star - A cross by Marble Branch that looks so interesting.

:yikes: Talk about a haul!!! And I hope you have space for all of that!! I'm jealous, this is the sort of orchid show haul I dream about, but I'm too sensible of a person and am too sensible with my money.

Were all of them pre-ordered, or are there a few which caught your eye at the show directly?

Wow, I love that 'log' mount. It looks really neat!

nenella 05-18-2015 01:44 PM

Melissa I agree with Camille that is an unbelievable HAUL !!!!!!!!
Camille, no not a 'new' vendor .. From Schwerter..
I actually got 2 of them (one for me, one I'll take to my mother @ the end of the year)
Then 2 Dend kingianums (same as above)
Got my mum a Dend Farmeri
Got myself an Asco miniatum (as mine Is no longer flourishing) and a phal violacea Var coerulea
I have Also ordered a podangis from nardotto and a couple other TC
With all the Bank holidays in France this month orders are taking their time arriving,,,

I ALMOST ordered from Schwerter, but then saw that Elsner had a Phal I really wanted, and ended up ordering there, which was better in the end since shipping is 7€ cheaper (I also got the package via DPD in 2 days, while with Schwerter DHL always takes a week....) Wish I could order from Nardotto again, but shipping to the lowlands is phenomonally expensive! I need to time an order with a visit to France!
