I was about to name that shop too, but I can’t vouch for it as I’ve never purchased before. If you’ll also take community pots, carter and Holmes had a few for sale earlier this year.

Beautiful! Your pictures made me read about this hybrid since I’ve seen it while searching for other orchids online. Makes me really want one of my own. I’d love to see the color in person.

I’m curious to know at what point will this all come to a big mess of nomenclature for the scientists doing this. I’m all for reorganizing if maybe it’ll sort out in a few years.

I also bring my blooms indoors to enjoy. It’s my primary goal in keeping orchids. And when it rains heavily, I do the same. If it’s just a few days, you shouldn’t have a problem.
