Neofinetia falcata - Manjusahwa arrived
The most expensive plant I have ever bought arrived yesterday. Pleased but very nervous that I can't make it deliver lol. I bought the pot too and decided that "less was more" and went for the plainest I could find.

LOL I have twelve now. This one cost £150 and is grown from seed from a verified plant. I'm very happy with it. I also got another, 'Joiljeon', f.o.c. and my last one, 'Nanghwasaja', arrived not too long ago and it, too, is a fine specimen. Now, MUST stop spending before I'm totally broke! LOL

 I've never spent that much on orchids before, not even on an entire order! Even now that I have the means to get such a pricey plant, I'm just too scared that the plant will die....
What is so special about this one to warrant such a price? Is it the bloom color or the shape?
