It was my first show and I am still grinning from ear to ear two days later. I think the Brassavola Nodosa, sedirea japonica, and neo. Falcata are very small, hopefully I can keep them going till they bloom. The max-ten has 6 blooms and it's frangrance fills up my bedroom and it's lovely. I am soo soo very happy with this purchase ❤️

I am happy to hear you had a good time! I love what you bought. They are all great orchids.
I just bought an African Violet. It has been twenty years since I last grew them so I have to learn all over again.

It was an orchid/African Violet show so there was tons and tons of African violets. The variety they had was overwhelming. I had to get one when I saw what Rob's astro zombie looked like. It reminds me of a Hubble picture. It was only $2 and the pot was $9. I have 3 African violets that are blooming at my apartment and they took awhile to acclimatize to my environment. Now at least one of them is always in bloom I treat them just like an orchid...when dry, give them a drink and lots of sun. |

I have been keeping mine moist. It is in a very tiny pot and is very root-bound. I just bought some African violet mix and will be moving it to a larger pot. I had to read up on them.
It is funny but I never thought I would really get another one and yet when I saw this one, I had to get it. It isn't even fancy. It should be interesting to see how many I have by next year at this time.
