the last time i was there (last monday) got hold of aerides lawrenciae for Php 100 / each, and i saw something new on their stock, dendrobium surigaense is the new chids on their block

[boyong]

i might visit first the Lung Center on sunday to visit the stall from Nueva Vizcaya which always bring some native orchids last sunday i got hold of amesiella montinola and Phal Lundenii each for 3 for Php 100 and a native bulbo for Php 50 only

[Zildjian]

Do they still have stocks of luedde?

look at the web for aerides lawrenciae and looks like i have one of those in my collection. looks like a vanda and i was cheated by the seller here in cavite told me it's a waling waling from mindanao. at 150 pesos i bought it and was really a poor newbie back then. it bloomed and the fragrance is strong like our local sampaguita.

looks like i'll be getting myself a dend surigaense tomorrow. beautiful photo from the link below.

tradings at Lung Center are only on Sundays tradings usually starts very early in the morning up to 12 noon only, there are lots of variety of native orchids coming from other provinces, was also able to get hold of blooming ascocentrum auriantiacum more than a month ago for only Php 50 i've got no idea as to other places to go for orchids hunting

[Zildjian]

wow 50 only...no brainer. i'll schedule a visit. how early is very early in the morning...

[boyong]

the trader from nueva vizcaya sells only native orchids the price ranges from as low as Php 3 for 100 to as high as Php 100 per plant

traders are already there at saturday evening; some bulk buyer are already there waiting for the trades to come. Sunday morning 5AM there's already a lot of buyers mainly due to the fact that not only orchids and plants are being offered there's also a flea market

[Zildjian]
