If your'e going to have an addiction, it's hard to think of a better one!

I agree with fishmom, a very enjoyable addiction as well. Andy's makes it sooo easy. The first two on your order I received as a gift from Andy's Christmas sale along with two others. The Trichoglottis arrived in bloom, teenie flowers and it bloomed for two weeks. Nice plant. The Schoenorchis scolopendria has a spike now and I almost missed seeing it! Schoenorchis have amazing little clusters of tiny flowers so I'm excited this one is going to bloom soon.

Good luck with your new plants, nice choices. As far as the addiction, relax and enjoy it. Please post pictures when your plants arrive.

It is quite easy to be addicted to buying orchids from Andy's. He has such great stuff and it is always healthy. Good luck with your new orchids!

Dangerous territory, for sure.

It could be real trouble if someone mentions that Andy's website doesn't list nearly everything, and that you can call and ask about a hard to find species and he may just have it.

I just hope no one says anything about that.

I see what you did there. There's already so much on his website I don't even know where I would start when it came to making special requests... Any suggestions?

Will defiantly be posting photos! I'm pretty curious as to how your plants look, any photos?

The plants have done well in the two months I've had them, both have had new growth and the Schoenorchis has a tiny spike forming. I have a Schoenorchis fragrans I've had for years that blooms faithfully so I'm anxious to see the flowers on this scolopendria. I'll attempt to post pictures, they may be sideways sorry in advance.
