2012 spring project - FINAL POLL (participants only)

[The Mutant]

Haha! Seems like I'm not the only one eager to get started.

I think I'll have to skip out on the whole TC thing since I've blown my budget over the moon I think.

...

Nah, who am I kidding, of course there will be TCs!

All the plants you got now were just so you'd have a welcoming committee at home for the project plant!

Of course you can! We will help you by using our awesome mental powers and convince Paypal and whatever paying method the vendors have, that you've paid for the orders fair and square!

How many plants have you added to your collection in the last few months? But of course there is always room for one more!

Exactly! So it won't feel like it has come to an amateur's home, but one seriously afflicted with the orchid bug. I think this will have a calming effect on it, don't you?

I've got shopping baskets of over 100€ at each.It would be madness to spend 400€ on orchids all at once!

When I'm done, probably around 40-50 I think...

Who? Me? Got it bad? Naaah, I've no idea what you guys are talking about!

Oh my God! What on earth are the plants on your wishlist? I don't think my Schwerter haul amounted to that sum even.

I'm glad I like the cheap orchids...

[camille1585]

Well most are cheap, there's just a lot of them! And it includes shipping. You already know most of what I wanted to get at Schwerter (added the yellow equestris hybrid and removed Mini Mark)

At Lucke for instance I have this:
Phalaenopsis Penang Girl
Dendrobium aberrans x polysema
Howeara Lava Burst "Red Bug"
Bulbophyllum Wilmar Galaxy
Phalaenopsis (Brother Pepride x lobbii) x braceana
Phalaenopsis Mini Mark `Maria Theresa` AM/AOS
Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi
Gastrochilus calceolaris

Total with shipping is 110,10€. And they don't even have any of the potential project plants

I think I can cut some out at each grower. I put in plants I want, but some are not orchids that I can't live without. So at Lucke I could take out the last two and the Bulbo (which is dearei x lobbii, and I'd get the lobbii or sumatranum anyway)

[camille1585]

Actually if I want to order stuff from several, I'd better cut it down A LOT. And I think I can skip the entire Akerne order. And I also have duplicates (one Phal in in my lists of 2 growers)
