Went a little crazy at the Phal Nursery today!
I went with the intention of picking up a few phals for our club meeting next week...and came home with a few for myself besides 
First pic is a group shot of all the 'chids I picked up today...the others are the ones that are mine 
Group, Phal Little Mary, Phal Brother Sara Gold, Dtps (Taisuco Firebird x Valentine) x Dtps Kinu Pink Later,
and Phal Fortune Buddha which is fragrant

I can see why they were so tempting! Nice selections!
I especially like the one that is fragrant.

Hey Susanne,
Thay're all beauties!
I can't blame ya, I seem to be buying something every week! I have to ask: I noticed the boom box in the group photo, and was wondering...do you play heavy metal for your babies?! 'Cuz that's what the Mythbusters found to be most beneficial (played loudly, of course!)!!

Hi Rhonda
No heavy metal here...the 'chids will just have to adjust to what Momma likes

How wonderful! You are lucky to have such wonderful nurseries within driving distance. (or maybe that's too tempting)...

Those are all beautiful! I can see why you bought so many--too many nice ones to choose from. 
One for the Orchid Society Meeting, Two for me--one more for the meeting--two more for me.......... |

I came home with ten but only four of them are mine 
My husband almost passed out when he saw me unloading the car ...and then reminded me of the other three that are coming from Hausermann's this week
He's recovered now
