Masdie Haul
Ok,
So I went a bit nuts in trying to recapture my Masdevallia growing hay day. I went ahead and purchased Masdies from all over, two weeks ago I got two from Ebay (Still alive). I have another from a different Ebay vendor coming soon, and today I received two packages, one from Kalapana Tropicals and the other from Golden Gate Orchids. The quality of the plants is superb from both vendors. Their packaging is professional. Here are some pics. I just found out I may have broken my camera so I have to send it to get repaired. Because of this, the photos are cell phone photos and of a lesser quality.
This is Machu Picchu from Golden Gate Orchids.

This is Masdevallia Huayana Picchu from Kalapana Tropicals. It looks like the bloom opened while it was in transit. I hope it opens up more.

Haneczka from Kalapana Tropicals. I did not order this, I guess they just threw it in as a bonus. This flower seems to be on it's way out but another bud is coming in.

I've got a bunch more coming from Ecuagenera this month and a bunch from Colombian Orchid Imports later on. Wish me luck. I'm going to repot these, mostly in clay pots semi/hydro style, some may end up mounted on kool-logs.
