I got mine at Michael's.

thanks, guys!

here are some photos after the setup tonight; i didn't want to tackle repotting this until late next year. i'm happy keeping it in Sphag medium for now.

- the first 2 show the plant in the condition they arrived in.

- 3rd photo shows the plant after i designated a new pot for it; i thought it was very fitting

- the last image shows the impromptu growing area by the East Window. the plants going counter clockwise are:

• SLC Love Castle Kurenai
  
• Phal NOID
  
• Onc. Twinkle (Oncidium cheirophorum x Oncidium ornithorhynchum)
  
• Den. Zeschia Lynn
  
• Masd. Herr.
  
• Onc. Twinkle 'Fragrance Fantasy'

I love the panda pot. It's too cute. I got my Masdie today too. Haven't decided what to do with it yet.

Cute pot. I like your whole table set up.

thanks! it's getting a bit crowded there but this is the needs-constant-monitoring part of my collection.

what you guys don't see is the empty second tier at the bottom that still receives light.

hope the bug doesn't bite and i decide to fill that tray, too

**Now you know the bug will be biting!!** BTW I LOVE the Panda pot!!

CUTE pot!

And yes, you will fill the other shelf.

If any of the leaves on the Mas. go missing you will only have the Panda to blame. I am sure that the plant will bloom beautifully.

that's too funny! thanks, Bill!

and thanks, all - as my niece says, the pot is 'cutie-patootie'!

that was a second-hand find about to go to the bin from someone at work whose plant had died.

the fisherman pot for Den. Zeschia Lynn also came from the same individual (i'm glad they killed their plants, hehe).

Your sick person to be happy gaining pots at the expense of innocent plants

alas, i could do nothing for the plant...!

i was, however, able to rescue the pot

[dr_frnkblck]

I shake my head sadly.
A moment of silence for plants that have fallen before ours.
It's always a shame when a parent outlives their plant.

[amersault]

or the pot, for that matter

but there is always a sense of fulfillment matching the right pot to the right plant - the joys of Rescue work!
