Orchid Center is located in Waianae, Hawaii. They used to ship plants to the mainland but I believe they discontinued shipping. I should have taken a photo of their bench with all the Fuchs Orange Nuggett in bloom. It was a spectacular sight. All of the plants were blooming simultaneously.

I bought one of these a month ago at an orchid show. A couple of vendors were selling them and Gold Digger 'Gold Rush'. I think they came from Newman's. It's a great plant. I'm glad it's offered again.
Great picture as usual.
