Just got 2 shipments in of orchids, and I'm in heaven. From Mauiorchids.com I received a C. mossiae 'Pauwela'. a Den. (Fortune x Star Sapphire) x Den. Princess, a Rhy. gigantea 'Burgundy Wine' and a Lc. Hawaiian Easter x Lc. (Rosie's Surprise x Mem. Robert Strait). The Den. Princess is in bloom, and gorgeous. They included a free bonus. Very reasonable prices too. From Orchids.com I received a Slc. Hawaiian Splash 'Universa' and a Pot. Shin Shiang Diamond 'Ta Y. Both have beautiful blooms and are in great shape! Thanks again for the referrals, Pauly. I can attest to their quality.
