OK. Back to topic here.
Bought a Neo. Flask and Ascofinetia Moonlight Firefly.
Just looked up Bulbo phalaenopsis. Why would someone want something that smells that way when in bloom?? Good luck with that one Daethen.

Because it's cool? I have one that is either supposed to smell like rotten brie or a very old dead body when it blooms. It hasn't bloomed yet, so I cannot verify these reports, but the blooms are gorgeous. Google Bulbophyllum Carunculatum var. Sulawesi.  |

I think they are cool and fun.
Wow, that is a nice one! I just have Bulbo ambrosia.
I really like this thread. It makes me feel better about all the orchids I bought this spring (of course, the orchids make me feel pretty happy....). It really alleviates the guilt when I see I'm not the only one who went on a spree. |

No you are not alone. I've emptied my shopping cart at Hausermann's like six times, because I want to make an order, but I'm not sure I have room for all of the plants I want. LOL!

A neostylis orchid
Neostylis Lou Sneary 'Bluebird'
It smells like heaven! First spike is gone but it's growing a second one!

Just bought some off ebay. Got a Phal mannii, Phal Javanica (in spike), and two compots. One has three Phal pulchras in it. The other has eight that haven't bloomed yet but the parent's look amazing so I'm optimistic. One parent was a Phal violacea 'Midnight Mlade' and the other was a Phal mayamar 'Mt. Vernon'. The picture is the one he provided of the parents.

Last night I ordered an Ascocentrum minatum from Abita Orchids on eBay. It in tripal spike.
The pic is the seller's. I bought the Moonlight Firefly from them and it can in excellent shape. So I trusted them again for this one.
