I agree, great find Sue! It's so so cute! I love the primary hybrids. Sadly there were no orchids like that at the show I went to this weekend.

Ok, I may have a few things to figure out here. Thinking is depressing! )

If it makes you feel better, I have the same problem. I have nearly a month off for the holidays (as opposed to the usual 2 weeks) and there is no way for the orchids to take care of themselves that long in my dorm. And I can't bring 40 orchids in the airplane with me.... I'm worrying already! As for the parents letting me in the house, my mom likes orchids now (and takes care of 12 of mine). Before, when I would get new orchids, her reaction was "don't you have enough??". But when I told her on Saturday that I got 6 more at a show, she said "Ooooo, what did you get? Send photos!"

Sorry for the hijack Sue!
