Default My haul from the show


Ascocenda Princess Mikasa Blue in spike and small Oncidium Sharry Baby, I bought them at the sales stands.



From Ecuagenera,
large one is Phragmipedium pearcei;
two same ones on the left are Dracula lotax - plant came apart when I unwrapped it, so I potted both parts separately;
Phal mannii in the middle
and Masdevallia amplexa on the right (and I just realized that I forgot to put there Catt. araguaiensis - three very small p-bulbs, nothing special).



From Ten Shin Gardens,
large Vanda tessellata in vase(it has two long roots growing vertically, I managed to curl one back into vase, hope it will grow more roots);
Phal violacea coerulea with bud (I think bud is starting to die, maybe due to travelling stress) and some black spot on the leaf;
Phal tetraspis C1 to the left, I think there is a spike starting from the lowest leaf;
Haraella retrocalla small and cute at the front - there are three spindly growths, I can't decide if they are roots or spikes;
Phal lobii to the right, they said it is a blooming size.

Wow, you really did take home a haul!! They all look great. It's nice to be able to get some out of country items without all the hassle of doing the importing isn't it! I really just have to concentrate on growing what I have, so not sure if I will go to the Edmonton show in Feb. It is way too tempting. But then again....

Enjoy your new chids.

Looks like a great haul! Princess Mikasa is one of my favorites.

Thank you Silken and Tucker85.
I will see if Dracula and Masdie will survive - I will order some more of their kind when spring comes and we will have our show n April. If not - I still have bunch of vandas and phals in my wish list
Tucker85, I just found out that there is Ascda Princess Mikasa White, now I would relly like to get one.

WOW! Real nice haul! Anytime you can add 12 new healthy Chids to your collection it makes for a great day. Good Luck with all of them.

It's a great haul. My dracula lotax came apart AND lost half of its leaves (Ecuagenera, Calgary show), but seems to bounce back now. Your phal. lobbii looks great. I got mine from Cloud's, it's smaller and has a small spike. I love the way you grow the asco. in a vase. How does that work for you in the winter?

I am very happy for you ! You have two healthy vandacious and one is in spike(no worries...as long as you moisten the roots often and put it in bright diffussed light and warm it...it will revive. I water vandas in a vase twice a day (before I go to work and when I arrive home)

What a nice haul!! Feels like Christmas to get that many orchids I bet.
Phal lobbii looks to be blooming size, I haev the closely related Phal parishii and it's pretty much that size. I think lobbii is also a spring bloomer. I'm jealous about the C1, I really really am dying to have one!

If you post a closer pic of the haraella I bet we can tell you what those stems are.

Thank you flhiker. I am a bit worried about new drac and masdie, but after some research maybe will keep them alive.
