During my travels for work today I stopped by the Violet Barn to see if they had any interesting new plants and they've started to sell orchids now too! I picked up a division of an awarded Gramm. scriptum in a 6" pot for $15 and an Lc. Green Veil 'Dressy' for $7.50. I was so excited. Both are really healthy looking and blooming size. I was astounded.

Wow!. I am excited for you. I have never heard of this outlet and nobody locally carries anything remotely like these.

The Violet Barn, home of Rob's African Violets just a local place that does a TON of african violets. Was cool to see some orchids there.

WOW!!!!!!! Great prices.

Another new orchid place to spend your money. Sounds like fun.

I went shopping on line this morning looking for one particular neostylis. After looking for almost a year, I found one today. Did I buy it? NO. Instead I was talked into two others which sounded better than what I was looking for. Typical woman shopper?????????/
