Just got back from Briggs Hill Orchids a couple of hours ago. My son went with me. We spent nearly 3 hours snooping around the greenhouse asking lots of questions. Helene is a peach and was so helpful, showing us plants that should be successful in our area, and how to help others along that might not do so well in lower humidity. I tried to purchase plants that I've not had any experience with before to kind of stretch my knowledge a little. Hope I can keep them happy.
Here's what I brought home:
Blc. Mem. Vida Lee 'Limelight' - lime green petals and a fushia lip.
Epi. Pak Girl x Pacific Embers in bloom - brilliant orange
Brassavola nodosa
and last but not least my first slipper
Paph. delenatii
My son bought:
Cymbidium - yellow/orange flower
Dendro. with hairy yellow flowers
and a Gongora (can't remember which one sorry) in spike. It has light brown flowers and is extremely fragrant. Kind of smells like cinnamon, nutmeg with a hint of citrus.
