Pseudo Haul
I am charged with ordering budded/blooming plants for our society show/sale in April. I just place an order for 60 plants from Carmela's. They should be here by 4/18. I will then unwrap and fluff them all and pretend they are mine!  I'll also have first pick if anything strikes my fancy! Hmmmm  |

Lucky lucky you!! The trouble with getting 60 orchids that aren't mine is that I'd want to keep them all!
You'd better share pics, because I was to see your temporary ocean of orchids!

You ordered from a good nursery. I've bought many plants from Carmela's. They sell quality orchids. Have fun.

Our society ordered the orchids from there that they give away to our members at the end of the year and, wow, every last one was a winner. They have wonderful orchids.

I've visited their greenhouse before and they do have excellent plants. I'll be sure and snap a pic when they arrive.
If they all strike my fancy I think I'll be looking for a new place to live because my husband will be filing for divorce!  |

Well, should this lead to divorce, I'm sure you'll find
plenty of "takers" on this board. I have the feeling though, that you have a very understanding guy since he's come this far with your orchids! (sometimes I feel a bit sorry for mine too, I just don't let him know!) If all else fails, you can always put them in a plant hotel.
