Default New Purchases

Morning All!
I bought two new chids last week from an orchid nursery here in Maine. They were having their annual fall sale. I think I did pretty good to only buy two. The first is Lc. Mini Purple 'Blue Hawaii' x Lc. Anceps v. Coerulea 'Fort Caroline' with three new growths that look promising.
My second purchase is Phal. (testraspis v. alba x cornu-cervi v. alba) x self which has one stem that I know has bloomed, and three new ones coming on. It's been so long since I bought new orchids, that I had to see if I still knew how! I have to tell you, it felt pretty darn good!

You are going to have to buy new plants more often. It wouldn't do to get out of practice!!

Kiki, haven't seen you around much but I haven't been around much either! Fall sale you say????? Isn't it the dead of winter up there in Maine already....hasn't fall come and gone? Al seems to think so...

Good luck with your new chids.... love to see the flowers.

Oh no! It's in the 60s today and sunny and absolutely gorgeous outside! We haven't had any snow yet. (Knock on wood). Our summer and fall have been outstanding this year. I don't get on the computer as much as I do in winter, Doc. I've missed you all, though!
Of course, Al is further North of me, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't have snow yet either. He's been dreaming of Alaska again, I think.

Looks awesome, and I've been starting to like laelia anceps crosses more and more lately!
