Hi All! How was everyone's weekend. I went to the show on Saturday Night. By the time I got to the vendors they were closing shop. Oh well. So I went on Sunday. This time I showed up 1 hour before the vendors were closing shop. I got my self 2 Blc.'s 2 Slc.'s 1 Pot. a Phalaenopsis and a Cymbidium. My girlfriend Wendy took home the Cymbidium, the Slc. Wendy's Valentine, and the Phalaenopsis. I took home the other three. One of the Blc.'s however had all black roots when I came home. Cut them all off and soaked the plant this morning in rooting hormone from Rays First ORchids. Hopefully thats good. I also repotted it into orchid mix.
All in all, the 1 Blc's the Slc the Cymbidium and the Pot. all came out to $20!!! and 15 on the Phal. and 10 on the second Blc with the rotted roots. I didn't get the chance to check out the roots of the others yet though. Hopefully they are better since they are potted differently.
Pictures of the show and my aquisitions to come tonight. I had fun!!!
