Ebay's Nia and Oak Hill Garden purchases

[kiki-do]

Good Morning All!
Yours truly went and purchased new chids this week. I had a weak moment, what can I say. But after kicking myself silly, I managed to take pics of these incredible buys. One is a Phal violacea (red) in bud that I won on Nia's Ebay site....in fantastic condition. That was my first ebay purchase. The other three are from Oak Hill Gardens. All look amazing! Dendrobium antennatum that shows no signs of spikes, but is healthy and very tall. I had trouble getting the whole plant in the pic. The next is a Phal. Bellina (violacea v. Borneo), and the last is Haraelia retrocalla with two buds. It's a healthy looking plant, but wouldn't be surprised if the buds blast, they are very spindley. Thanks for looking!

Great choices kiki, and nice plants. I hope those buds hang in there and bloom for you.

So YOU'RE the on that got the violacea I wanted. GRRRR! All kidding aside, good looking plant kiki. I've bought plants from Nia before, and have been very satisfied.

I've purchased from both - Oak Hill both from their site and an eBay auction. The plants have been great; in fact, it was a Phal. stuartiana I got from Oak Hill, and it is my favorite stuartiana!

This is funny, I got one a couple of weeks before. I think it was the first one (red) she listed.
Unfortunately, the buds blasted!!
The plant is nice though.

Very nice choices! & all look in good condition. I hope you get to see & share the red violacea flower with us.
I don't think your Haraellla buds look spindly but normal- one is already opening & the other won't be long to go.
Great buys!

Bev and Kim, It's all Al's fault. He's the one who pointed the way for me. He made me do it by sending me that link.

Such a satisfying feeling to know I've been of help.
