    Default Southland Orchid Show haul

    Sedirea Japonica

    "Seigyokumaru" smallest
    "Minmaru"
    "Nagoran"

    Neofinetia Falcata

    "Tamakongo"
    "Fukujumaru"
    "Isechabo"

    All are reasonably priced, except one that says $3000 on the tag, thought there was an extra "0" by mistake. Apparently it is suppose to be a rare one. Maybe an endangered specie. Nope, I didn't get it.

    Aaaah! Marissa! You are now well on the way to a very varied collection! Keep on a-goin' ! Are you dreaming of wide windowsills? Planning on making a grow cart? Whistfully think of greenhouses? Definately deep into orchid fever!

    Nice haul! And here I thought I was lucky to get a nice baggie baby today! lol That selection is great! I envy you the angraecium. I've yet to jump into that group. Best of luck with your new 'chids. I can't wait to see them bloom for you...

    Looks like you were at the Huntington this past weekend? I bought 2 plants. I'll post pics when I get back from New Jersey.

    I was, it was a lot of fun except for the fact that I should have picked a more comfortable shoes/slippers as I almost didn't make it back to my car after almost a whole day of walking and standing staring at all those beautiful orchids. So, what followed you home? Did you say you only got 2?, no way...lol.
