I'm interested in all of them, my friend

There are 4 (I think) that I have already but they're ones that I love so a double isn't so bad

Congratulations Sue and Jackie on your new babies! They all look so nice and healthy too! I placed an order with Oak Hill too but I fear I will be waiting for a loooong time for my order. It's so cold here right now. I just got 5 of the seedlings and some BS phals. Seeing your pics is making me impatient! lol

This is really making me think about the "do you choose orchids wisely" thread and poll! Because, I'm thinking about getting all 20... but there are clearly some in there that aren't suited for my current set up, and I don't have the first clue as to their care... I guess that's what all these books I have, and OB are for huh!

Exactly! You can say it's a learning experience. Plus, for $3 you can't even feel bad if one doesn't make it. It's a cheap and easy way to try something new! But I got 5 phal seedlings so what do I know!

Yes Biker, everything in that pic is from Oakhill's delivery on Wednesday.
I just haven't taken a pic up close to any of the blooming ones yet.

OK...I want to get on board with the Oak Hill Gardens seedlings too. I am comfortable with the phals (especially the schilleriana and Intermedia) but don't know much about the other ones on there. I guess I could do some research! I just have an artifical lighting set-up which for now is capable of growing phals and oncidiums. I am trying a couple of mini-catts under the big CFL but they haven't bloomed yet.
Ok I'm blathering....haha......I want seedlings! Any ideas as far as the other ones listed, in particular any besides the phals that are relatively easy and can tolerate relatively less light (like phals)?
thanks
Dan in Austin
