I promised to check back after the show. Here goes:

Blooming with 2 spikes, Sharry Baby!!!
Blooming with 10 spikes, Onc. Twinkle "Golden Fantasy"
Blooming with 1 spike, Oncda. Hula Halau "V. Splendor"
Phschopsis Mendenhall "Hildos" (replacement for one that I lost in the 'Big Rot' of 2013)
Then I got a 6 pack of seedlings that include:
C. skinneri, C. purpurata, C. purpurata v. carnea, Laelia anceps Alba, Enc. cochleata, and Doritis pulcherrima v. champornensis

The Doritis is actually blooming size though little. Got the 6 for $15.00 so I didn't think that was too bad.

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

It never fails, the only way I will leave my orchid society's meeting WITHOUT buying an orchid is to not attend at all! I even left my checkbook at home. But noooooooo! Our guest speaker accepts PayPal. So I ended up with four new plants NOT Neofinetia. He had a lot of Paphiopedelium and Phragmipedium--which is my society's favorite plant, fortunately I cannot grow these plants satisfactorily, so I passed on those. But those lady slippers were lovely, he had a couple of beautiful Phragmipedium bessea that were just starting to bloom for $25.00.

1 Dendrobium Microchip--beautiful yellow white flowers and fragrant too.

4 Phalaenopsis stuartiana. I already have this plant BUT $25 for spiking plant? I just could not let it go.

See you at POE! This will also by my first plunge in 2014. Placed a few pre-orders (Oberonia jenkinsiana, proudlockii, not-falconeri, rosea, a couple more) and Andy said he has some Oberonia specimens to show and discuss :biggrin:
And then there are the unexpected finds …

Vorfreude ist die schönste Freude [Anticipation is the greatest joy]. Only three more weeks! Fortunately, some speaking engagements will off-set some of the expenses.

I got a blooming (its a noid cuz it doesn't have a tag but on the aide of the pot it came on it says DARK KNIGHT is big black letters) phalaenopsis and a Maxillaria tenuifolia cuz I wanted something fregrent.

I got them all fairly cheap and I am saving the rest of my money for either a flask or this spring when my area gets new stock in at the nurseries.

Some from Andy's Orchids, some from the Ft. Lauderdale show. I want to go to the Boca show too, but I've run out of room! UNLESS I can find an Angraecum eichlerianum or cultriforme.

Jumellea densifoliata
Angraecum calceolus
Angraecum didieri
Angraecum sesquipedale
Dendrobium limpidum
Cattleya luteola 4n
Brassavola cucullata
Dendrophylax lindenii
Dendrophylax sallei
Sobennikoffia robusta

Cattleya Green Emerald Queen
Tolumnia Golden Sunset x Tolumnia Elfin Gem
Tolumnia NOid

I really wanted to go to this one. It's just not in the cards...
:(

Unexpected
 

I needed to pick up juice at my local Safeway. Totally not thinking about orchids and came upon their display of about 3O big beautiful pansy orchids for $16.00 each. I snapped up this one and a purple one with the buds just opening. For the price of cut flowers, I'll take a chance,

Sharry, that flower shape reminds me of my Milt. 'Voluptous'. I take it there wasn't a tag in the pot.

Tabbyblack: No name tag but the grower tag is Matsui Nursery from Salinas. Do you grow these in Arizona? How do you keep it humid enough?

I need more orchids! I need more space! :)
