Ah! My heart skips a beat every time I see JST 'Anaconda'. It's just gorgeous! Wish I could afford it!

Spectacular flower! That's a really nice Joseph Wu cross. You have an amazing collection of phalaenopsis. What camera and lens are you using for these pictures?

The first phalaenopsis has beautiful markings. Are those plants from Big Leaf Orchids.

I have a Sony DSC-F828, Was slick when I bought it, but old stuff now. I really like the build, but they don't make them like this anymore.

Wish 'Anaconda' wasn't so darn expensive, would really love to get one of them! Just to beautiful for words!

The price will go down. Big Leaf has stems, and I'm sure other people have made them... because I know at least 2. Supply and demand will kick in soon.

Half the time I think its so gaudy its awful, the other half I think its the most awesome flower I've seen.

Yeah I saw the price of those stems.

Way more than I want to spend on just one plant regardless of what it is. Guess I'll just have to wait for the price to go down, but I figure it'll be years!
