Way to go, plants look healthy. Know what you mean, I usually have a wish list but always end up buying more.

I like orchid fairs and shows too. Gives you a chance to actually see the things you know you want and find some new ones you didnt even know about before you saw em. Buy them in bloom and you get to enjoy them before they die also

Nice haul! My wife would kill me if I picked up that many at once.

It's Slc Kauai Starbright x B. nodosa. It was quite pretty until one of the cats got to it and chewed the flowers off it. I thought they were safe for a few minutes while I went to the shops, but I shouldn't have been so naive...

I think the most I've ever bought at one time at a show was 8. Those days are so over!

Congrats. Glad here they usually don't accept credit cards at the shows. I'd be broke before I knew.
