Let me know what you get.. (smirk)

Oh Mariiiiiiaaaaaa...

guess what??/ (/udb)

I started teasing him about getting a $75 chid...any $75 chid ;) ...thinking he'd give me "the look" :shock:

The man likes to keep me guessing because he decided that IF I were to start buying "better" plants he would be happy as long as I didn't buy quite so many :coverlaugh:

He has no clue as to what he's started here but...

I picked up some cool "better" plants on Thursday and my good and evil and the best friend laura stopped at June's Orchid Estate and found some gorgeous blue bellinas! Of course, just telling me about them wasn't good enough for Laura and Laurie...oh no, they had to email me a :photo:

:faint:

Long involved story cut short...I'll be getting my new blue Phal bellina on Tuesday when I meet laura for the TOC meeting :chicken

and I will think of you every time I see it :lol:

Beautiful! I really like Terry and Barbara Glancy (Pine Ridge Orchids). They are outstanding growers and just about the nicest people you'd ever want to meet. I always thought their pricing was very reasonable, too.

You are sweet. :)

Well. See!!!! Now you can buy "better" plants!! ROFLOL!!

I'd love to see a picture when you get it!!!

Mine just opened its second bloom!! The indigo is even DARKER than the first one. I'm obssessed, really. :)

And, of course, the scent is fantastic!!

Yeah, they are very nice. I don't think their prices were outrageous either. I would have bought 2: the blue and the magenta, but I had spent my orchid budget. :) MEH. :(
