Miniatures from Andy's Orchids - pic heavy
Just got my box today from Andy's Orchids. I have to say, I got some nice miniatures for my vivariums.
Boys at Andy's Orchids were very helpful and the pacakge came in immaculately packed. Flash was a bit strong and I didn't feel like playing with the settings so the pics are a bit over exposed, but you'll get the idea of what I got.
Lepanthes manabina from Colombia
Stelis specie mini from Brazil
Stelis specie mini from Brazil nice & bushy from the side
Pleurothallis ornata (schiedei) from Mexico
Masdevallia floribunda from Mexico
Stelis ciliolata from Ecuador
Goodyera daibuzanensis
Barbosella handroi from Brazil
Haraella odorata from Taiwan
Dendrobium aberrans from Papua New Guinea
Appendicula elegans from Java
Epidendrum (Nanodes) porpax from Columbia
Anoectochilus chapaensis from Vietnam
Dracula lotax from Ecuador
Encyclia garciana from Venezuela

Marty that is incredible - how did you manage with our -20 weather? I have been yearning to order from Andy's for a long time, but figured the shipping + CITES + phyto would throw the prices through the roof. How'd you find the paperwork?

What a feeling it must have been, opening the carton filled with these. You are going to post pics when you get them set up, aren't you? Love that aberrans....just got one also!
Enjoy and looking forward to seeing them in their home!

I shipped to Detroit and drove it across myself. Told the customs I had a couple of miniature orchids with no soil. They wavem me through - I was a happy camper
They fedexed it to me overnight and held it at depot...it was well packed and they put 2 heating packs, came in nice and toasty.

Opening the box must have been like Christmas! I look forward to the pics when they are all settled in their new home.
I love the Den aberrans too!
