I went nuts at the Redlands festival!

I went nuts at the Redlands Festival on Friday!

It was just a little international commerce to do my part towards stimulating the economy…and my ever growing orchid collection.

Here are a few photos of the plants I brought home. Below you'll find the vendor name and the name of the plants pictured (in order from left to right). You'll see that almost all of them are species…and many were on my wish list as generated from posts on the OB! A few will be a challenge growing in my area, but I'm game…with these 29 new plants, I now have 442 plants in my collection!
