Last purchase till spring
After much deliberation and review of all your wonderful mini purchases and photos posted recently I made my final decision. This is my last purchase till the spring shows (like Grand Rapids ![Blushing](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/blushing02.gif) ).
Bulbophyllum psychoon
Aerangis citrata
Sedira japonica
The first 2 go in the Orchidarium and the last guy goes in the box-bay window upstairs.
I recently had to cull out 3 non-performers and these will replace those guys. Pics when they get here Friday.

That's funny Ross, I just ordered Sederia japonica and Beallara Marfitch 'Howard's Dream' yesterday from Los Osos. It's my last order of the season too.
Sederia japonica must have made an impression on lots of us in the project 4 group. I think there are several of us who have purchased it. Cute little thing! ![Smile](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/smile.gif)

Aerangis citrata one of my favorites ... potted or mounted.
Mine is in a pot and came with a bonus pup, want to mount but not sure as when, time is of the essence ![Thumbs Down](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/thumbsdown.gif)

All of mine will be mounted (that's what I ordered). I've pretty-much given up on pots in the Orchidarium as it's just too wet!

Nice selection, but no phals. Oh well. Do you have pics of what the bulbo is supposed to look like? I have never heard of it.

Here are the two orchidarium 'chids
![](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/gallery/data/665/thumbs/DSC2188_copy.jpg) They are in the back row on the right. Bonus -> the Aerangis citrata arrived in spike (you can sort of see it as a green thread.)
The tank is starting to fill up as the 'chids expand and mature:
Last count I have 5 in spike (counting one jewell orchid) and 3 in blossom.

The third 'chid I received was Sedira japonica mounted on a cedar slab.
It's to the lower left of the lower Compact Florescent. Looks really robust.
