Big Leaf Orchids/Peter Lin
I know that most folks already know about Peter, but I felt I should also post.
In the past weeks I've made a couple of orders with Big Leaf. The first was in my hands almost as soon as I placed the order, and the plants are magnificent. I was so pleased that I placed a second order, which came virtually as fast. Once again, the plants are magnificent. I'm thrilled by them all!
Peter and his business, Big Leaf Orchids, is fantastic. There are a lot of great vendors out there, yes, and I'm sure I've not yet even found them all. However, I can't imagine any vendor better, more responsive, and simply more enjoyable to deal with than Peter.

I totally agree. When you order from Big Leaf you know that you are going to receive a healthy orchid. You can't say that about very many places. I have placed several orders and have never been disappointed.

You purchased some wonderful plants! I assume you mean Phal. as opposed to P., yes?
The abbreviation P. is for Platanthera.
I hope you enjoy your new babies!! Phal. lueddemanniana is a great bloomer!!!

Wow. When I was first getting into this, P was used for Phalaenopsis. Now that I'm old and no longer capable of learning new tricks, though, they've changed it. Or maybe I really am just getting more stupider. But yes, I do mean Phal. Thanks!
Two arrived in bloom yesterday. The first is Phal. Golden Peoker 'Nan Cho' AM/AOS X lueddemanniana (and I wish I could photograph the fragrance!):
And the second is Phal. Minitris 'Peloric':
