Default Too cool Now I can say I'm a collector

A good friend just sent me 5 new chids....

A phal pulchra

A Dendrobium Parishii

A cattleya intermedia

A paph coloratum

and a lc.Cariad's Mini-Quinee " Angel Kiss"

I had a few chids but nothing to compare to this nice little collection.

LoL i did buy a couple of nice catts last fall to get really going as before this all I could claim were home depo noid phals ---nice plants but common stuff and a phaius I bought years ago that had never bloomed "Well at least not untill I found the Ob and help" and a poor paph that keeps meeting with disaster at a friends house ....LOL its is recovering again this summer.



I am sooo hoping all do well for me......

While you are collecting, collect the right spelling, too.
Dendrobium parishii
Of course, if you Google it, Google will give you the right spelling.

Have you ever noticed that the I and the U are right beside each other? Typos do happen.

You've got a fantastic friend, what a nice collection to get! Are you going to mount the phal on your cool wood piece?

actually I was considering the Catt intermedia for that.....the phal I will put into rice hulls which work like magic for phals for me ....they get huge really fast and bloom incredibly well potted in rice hulls.

After the phal gets a bit bigger and starts making keikis I will mount one,but I do not want to lose it for sure ....
Dont want to lose any LOL,but the Intermedia is a better choice to use for a first mount I think since it is so adaptable from what I read.
