Nope, the atroviolaeceum came from H & R. Thanks to Roly I got a nice plant. They had a few hanging on a display, then I spotted a tray on top of their display. Score!! H & R had some nice crosses but I decided to go with the species and liked the size. Hopefully I'll get to take it to a meeting or show down the road.

I should have known. H&R have the best choices and quality in these. Wish I had gotten mine from them.

Is that a philippinesis I see in your latest collection?

Nice plants by the way.

Sorry Roly, I'll be at Disney with my Granddaughter that weekend. Kid..Chid...? No choice there I'll be with My little Lilly any day I can. She lives in Philadelphia and I cherish every minute with her. We are celebrating her 3rd birthday with Minnie, Mickey, Pluto & the Princess at the Castle.

We'll just have to have a get together at Redlands or somewhere else. I'll be at the Redlands on that Saturday. Our Society is running a bus trip & I signed up. No driving and lots of fun.

Don't have that one. If you are refering to the couple right of the new vanda the top one is Aerides Odoratum (has not bloomed yet) & the bottom one is V Tesstalata.

I love the Den!!

It's nice that you had such a great time there with Roly. Orchid shows are always funner with fellow orchid addicts than with reluctant family members!

Camille, that is so true!! Our South Florida OB members are bonding into a nice co-dependent group. Hehe!
