Smile Yippee!!! Thanks Dana!!!

I went birthday shopping for myself this morning at Louis's place (came home with 2 new babies)...and came home to find a box being delivered from Dana

She is SO good to me! She knew of a vanda that I've been searching for and found it! I've been looking for over 2 yrs and had no luck! It is V (brunnea x tessellata) x V Kultana Fragrance.

The box today held that vanda and a big surprise!
A beautiful plant, Epi (floribundum x cordigera), was in the box too!

They are not in bloom at the moment but that's not important at all. I absolutely love them both...and Dana and Scott too

They sound like nice surprises.

If you don't mind my asking, what did you get at Louis' place?

I picked up an Asctm ampullaceum (have one already but this little cutie insisted on jumping in the truck) and an E. Gail Nakagaki which is very large but so beautiful and strongly fragrant that it was an instant "I want that one!" moment

Yes, she is!

This vanda has been on my wish-list for over two years and I never ever saw it, no matter where I went

I fell in love withe the one Laura has with it's smallish purple blooms and a fragrance like grape soda!

Dana...again...thank you SO much!

Looks like you had a very nice birthday! You must have been so thrilled to get that vanda, and on your B-day too!
I really like your Ascocentrum. I've been thinking about getting that one, or the Asctm miniatum.
