Okay, I admit it, I've bought myself some Christmas gifts the last two weeks:
Paph. Lady Rothschild
Paph. Michael Koopowitz x gardineri
Paph. Mount Toro x gardineri
Paph. Wössner Kolarmi
Phrag. Jason Fischer
Now, I just hope I'll be able to care properly for them, especially the Jason Fischer worries me a little (maybe it's too difficult? Should've thought of that before buying it).
The Paph. Lady Rothschild is a monster with a leafspan of 60cm (23¾")! It's my largest plant, despite only having one growth, and it's 1 - 1½ years away from blooming size. I might need to get a bigger apartment...

I would not worry too much about the Jason Fischer as long as you remember it likes lots of water. I have read many posts that Jason Fischer is very susceptible to rot, but it has been one of my best growing Phrags since I started with the genera in July.

I am being forced to not attend Tamiami this year (again) by forces of nature stronger than myself. So, in my feeble attempts to console myself, I have made the following purchases thus far in 2014:
Blc. Guess What 'SVO' AM/AOS x Lc. Tropical Pointer Sunset 'Ocean's Heaven' SM/JOGA
Sc. Cosmic Delight 'SVO' HCC/AOS x Slc. Circle of Life 'Trailblazer' AM/AOS.
Encyclia cordigera var. alba
Psychilis krugii
Epidendrum boricuarum
YOU'RE NEXT!!!
p.s. I hope everyone has fat wallets to purchase whatever your little heart desires!

I don't think PeeWee has been around of late, maybe someone else kicks off the 2015 thread?
