Great questions
First, I have 114 right now.
I usually limit myself to 2 or 3 but I did bring home 14 from Redlands last May!
and finally, I think it might have been as I was picking out my first orchid that I realized I MUST HAVE THEM ALL!!!!
Seriously, I bought my second the week after the first then joined the local society and now, 20 months later...I'm a full-blown addict!
