Shopping spree...it's all Laura's fault! ;)

[cb977]

Laura asked me if I'd like to take a ride down to Louis Del Favero's GH in Tampa with her...

Came home with these:

Epi veroscriptum x Epi ilense
Slc Tutakamen 'POP'
Hwra Lava Burst 'Paunani'
Slc Precious Stones x C leopoldii
Den Little Sweetscent
Tolu Tequila Sunrise
and another Max tenuifolia

Great choices.

Wow, that sounds like fun. I sure wish I had someone who liked to go orchid shopping with me.

Thursday I hope to go to Green Acres orchid shopping. I hope to find some small growing plants to go in my little Erin Pottery pots. Anyone want to join me?

Sue, the new chids will be in great company with the rest of your collection. Looks like ya made out like a bandit!

I started with just 3 on the table up front...then kept walking around and somehow the other three sneaked up there!

Ah-ha! Basket jumpers!! Orchids are really good at using those aerial roots to just jump off the bench and into your basket! Happens to me all the time!

Great Haul!! I love the coconut orchid!

Nice! I love the Hwra Lava Burst 'Paunani', but am totally unfamiliar with that genus. What does it stand for? It's a hybrid?
