Therein lies the problem of being a member of an orchid society...always temptation.
So, I went a bit farther and did an order from Andy's. I restrained myself and only ordered four new ones. I am, after all, very much out of space. It doesn't help that this place has so many wonderful, unique orchids!!!

I will be adding to that in about two weeks when I get paid. Seems like there is always something creeping into my collection.

Now if I can just keep them happy....

Twinkles are easy my two pink ones like yours currently have......6 new growths they have started?

Oh great, this thread again. I feel like I'm going to confession when I post these things. Lol, ok so I am going to Redlands in May, hotel room already booked. So I said to myself no more orchids until then. I'm kind of out of space and have to sell or give some away, because I'm sure I'll come home with a lot.

No more until then. It's amazing how one can make room for another orchid, even when they're out of room. Orchid Society meeting this month... Can you believe someone didn't want their mature Dendrobium spectabile?!?!?

I wanted it, like real real bad! So now that's it, no more orchids until Redlands.

Rats I saw one of these and was not sureni wanted it...welp....I want one now.

Yep. Thats how I got my golden shower.

I have not gotten any orchids this year, BUT I am saving and preparing to spend up to $300 at the Pacific Orchid Exposition.

Ok, admit it......what have you bought lately 2014 edition!

I'm going to have to look in my records but just this Thursday I bought eight plants. Five from Lowes and three from an eBay auction. One that I won in December but due to a mistake by the seller I did not get until last week. And I'm sure I bought at least two at the HOS meeting this month. Enough already :rofl: at least for this month.

My friends.. this afernoon I'm going to go with my other orchid-crazies friends to the house/greenhouse of a friend/collector/seller.... let the force be with me (and my wallet...) to resist the temptation :)

Ok, in the afternoon yesterday my face was like: http://alienationmentale.files.wordp...03/mask-rd.jpg

but I pick ony 2 plants: Hygrochilus parishii and Paphiopedilum micranthum (in bud)

Phalaenopsis is a gift of a friend. I only know it's a species. She knows the species, I'll have to flower it: Surprise!!!

Ruler is 30 cm - 11.8 inches

Haven't bought anything in 2014 yet. Saving my money for the South Carolina Orchid Society Show which happens on Feb 7th! This will be my first orchid show/sale. Then there is another show/sale closer to me in Savannah, GA on Feb 21st. So, yeah, definitely saving my money, even though its been tough.
