Ordering from the net is pretty painless. Looks like a great haul. Be sure and post pics of the first blooms.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

You get the same feeling with every box you receive! 
It's another nuance to add to orchid addiction

Every box I get til this day, still feels like the first one. It's always exciting, the feeling doesn't go away.

What a bunch of great choices! Can't wait to see the blooms!! 
You're in trouble now, though. . .getting those boxes of orchids is like Christmas Day but a whole lot better!
You're going to want another box here very very soon. . .lucky for you, the cold weather is coming and time for shipping is short.
Most of us, just hurry at this point. . .but maybe you still have some self control. Enjoy it while it lasts.  |

well since i,ve only had about 50 orchids in the past 15 years or so; i think i have some what of patience.
that is until i discovered internet shopping.
not much opportunity to buy orchids in winnipeg.actually my wife of 50 yrs has taught me a LOT about selfcontrol.
now its meant in a good sort of way. so don,t start thinking stuff . lol
