Nice haul!! Great looking equestris hybrid, and the pics are really wonderful with those water droplets.

A shame about the broken leaf, they don't fold the leaves upward when packing for shipping? Looks like it got hacked off by the edge of the pot.

Thank you everybody!
I think the problem was -that plants weren't wrapped each separately, they were just standing in the box with some shredded tissue in between. Maybe they moved during shipping and leaf got broken.
Clouds orchids always come wrapped each separately and I never had any leaf damage with them.
Oh well, plant still looks healthy and it wasn't a newest leaf, so I will let it go.
DTE x Sogo Hollywood does sound interesting, I was looking at the flask of this cross too, but then decided to go with Nonpareil becasue its both parents are my favorite clones.
