This weekend I'm going to the orchid show in Philly. I made a simple list of orchids to pick up but probably most I won't be able to get (but I could hope)
List of orchids to pick up: blooming if possible, and reasonable price.
Phal Hannover Passion
Vanda
Phrag.
Neo. (Want the most. What them blooming if possible)
Brassavola
Onc. Shery berry
A flask.
Seedlings.
Paph. Mix
Aeranthes henrici
Dendrobium spectabile
And any that peak my interest.


Anything else everyone here might have to add??

Well, lots of phals lately, as we had our bunch of show around Paris in the last month. The flowers will be posted soon, I'm finishing my french forums and FB tour.

Well. I went to the SEPOS International Orchid Show & Sale today and had loads of fun for my first show. I got to see my favorite orchid and see lots of awesome displays. But going to an orchid show without buying any orchids?? I couldn't makes it out alive. I bought 5 total. Wish I got more...
I got
two Neo. falcata Amamifuran.
A Dendrobium moniliforme (no tag) in bloom.
A Psychopsis Kalihi alba 'green valley' in spike.
and a Phrag. Schroderae, but the flowers I'm looking up r different than the one I got. (I didn't get the one in bloom, the seller wanted too much for that one. But I got the division from that one) the flowers on the one I got are a dark purple with a little bit of green in it and very long petals (6-8" long)

I'll post pix tomorrow. Thank you.

Sorry no that's not me favorite orchid. Mine is Dendrobium spectabile. They only had two on display. And only one vender had one but it wasn't blooming size and they wanted too much for it.

As for the Phrag. I wanted one simuler to that one but it had a redder pouch than the one I got. Still wish I got a pic of the one the vender had fr a sample. I fell in love right there.

The first one is Phrag. Second is the Psychopsis. Third & fourth if is dendrobium. It smells like my lilac. And the fifth r the two neo.s. and last is all of them together.
