Shakkai I see you got Dend. cyanocentrum and tetragonum. WOW, they sure are pretty. I think I will look them up for a spring order. Oh my gosh, maybe I better start thinking about how I can hide another plant shelf in this house.

I would love to see those flowers and I don't think 8" is so bad for the a flower as pretty as the coccinea. Another one for spring!!

LOL!! My strategy is to not have too many in any one place in the house... that way, my DH doesn't notice a few extra little ones stuck in here and there.
You guys were laughing at me when I said he wouldn't notice the new tank replacing the old aquarium... well, if he noticed, it wasn't remarked on.  I'm sure I can stick another dozen 'chids in there without any problem... 
Trouble is, I've now got 17 coming... fortunately, they aren't all cool growers, so some can't go in there anyway. SEE, I've got a plan, I tell you, a PLAN!!  |

Sorry I'm late on this thread (was out east at a wedding all week) but consider Dendrobium aberrans
 That's a 2" pot! |

I am very happy with them - Thanks to Larry's orchids on eBay - I have a bid up for the Masd. Charisma 
My little maxie is quite healthy and I am looking forward to it's blooms. I am having thoughts of repotting in a basket, eventually.
Max Ten is said to be medium sized - their flowers get to be about 2 inches. http://www.orchidspecies.com/orphotd...latenuifol.jpg
What I am looking forward to is the coconut aroma! .. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
IOSPE PHOTOS
http://www.orchidspecies.com/orphotdir/maxten.jpg - seems specimen size can become quite large ... 
Ross - That dend is to die for ! I love it .. oh no .. I am still on my masdie phase - dendros might be next
