Default Purchases from the Tatton Park Show

I was very restrained and only came home with 4 - and 2of them were from my wish list, so it was a successful trip!

They are:

Phal Mini Mark (in bloom)
Dendrobium Polar Fire (in bloom)
Miltoniopsis Anneville (in bud)
Cattleya mossiae

I'm a bit nervous about the Miltoniopsis - it's in moss, which has clearly been a good growing medium for it so far, but it's not my favourite medium to grow in, and with the drop in temperatures this week I don't think it will be as happy as it has been.

But, I'll be back with questions if it all goes horribly wrong!

That is a great selection.
I love the mini marc! I've never seen so many spikes and so many flowers on one!
Great job!

Agreed! I don't think I've ever seen a better-looking Mini Mark!

All your choices are

Thanks Laura, thanks Sue!

I've just been sitting in the dining room admiring them. Anyone looking in my window must think I'm nuts.

Excellent choices! Does your Mini Mark have fragrance? Mine has a light citrus/vanilla scent on warm days.

I'll have to check mine for that, I've not noticed one yet. I got mine from the same vendor as Nicky back in March.
