Did you get a shelf yet? How are you going to hide these with the others, LoL. I guess you can just "fluff" the leaves so that everything looks "big" and when your shipment comes in stash it in the pile.

I think I have all the plants on the original list. I just did not have enough the same size to make a good project without buying fresh plants. The list was mostly the same plants I buy for every show in the 2 inch size. I usually sell about 150 each show this size and keep reordering. I will be placing another order next week for my own inventory.

When I take plants to outdoor shows they can get beaten up and they go back on the shelf for a month to two.

One or two members asked me about their wish lists and I will soon get back to them about which ones I have. The problem with odds and ends is I know I have them but no idea where.

I was surprised yesterday that an orchid I love and have been unable to buy for two years, turned up alive and growing well in the greenhouse, when I thought it died two years ago. Ignoring plants sometimes works best.

I had a customer who used to sneak them in the house and when her husband asked if it was new she said she it was one she had, without saying how long.

Until the day she bought 10 at once.

Jerry, the editing priviledges have expired on my original post with the list of orchids I'd like to purchase from you. Want to make a change from Dend. Himezakura for a Dend. Oriental Smiles. Definitely all 3 of the following for me regardless of which orchid is selected for the project.

Dend. Cathy Beck
Dend. Oriental Smiles
Milt Earl Dunn

I don't think there's need for a poll.

Nancy- If you send Jerry an e-mail at jerrymeola@hotmail.com He'll send you the pictures. He's been a doll for doing this. I think he's going to be swamped with orders! Mention Orchids in the subject line, also.

I'm getting anxious to get started on this project. Jerry, when do you think we will be able to order? Are you swamped with the species project orders right now I passed up some really nice baskets of Sogo Grape phals today because I kept thinking I could get them from you They're a lot prettier than their picture and I can hardly wait 'til you give us the green light (blame it all on this addiction,lol) Soon, I hope ?

So Jerry, what's the latest update with the project? And, when are you going to begin taking orders? My Visa card is warmed up and waiting.
