Talking Maria's birthday presents to herself

MY b-day is in November. But I'm not planning on buying any orchids by then. Too cold....take too long to establish, etc.

So, I already ordered my birthday plants:


Wanna see?



Laelia anceps var. disciplinata (lineata striata) at Santa Barbara Orchid Estate


and



Laelia gouldiana 'Greta Garbo' at Santa Barbara Orchid Estate



Aren't they gorgeous????

I thought so too.

Maria, you have the right attitude towards birthdays.
First of all, you HAVE to buy yourself a present, and second of all: you have to do it when the occasion presents itself. That means of course that it is perfectly ligit to start practicing at the 3, 9, and 9mnth period, just to make sure that you get it right when the big day comes along. Good work!

I think Maria should move to Santa Barbara- imagine how much she could save on shipping costs! Enough to buy lots more orchids!
