I'm thinning the herd a bit :-)

Prices below do NOT include shipping, I’m estimating around $8.00 via USPS priority mail for a package, but if you’re west coast (I'm in DC) or buying several of these (i.e., larger box) it may be more. If you decide to buy anything, I’d rather get the plants to USPS and see how much the shipping is going to cost, then let you know the “final” price, if that’s okay. And if you're in the DC area and want to come by, that works too.

The photos below, including flowers, are all the actual plants I'm getting rid of.

$45 - Bl. Little Stars: 50 or so pseudobulbs or leaves or whatever you call these, I'm allergic to it, go figure. Potted in hydroton, but not grown as semi-hydro, just water it once or twice a week.

$20 - Phrag calurum: 1PB currently blooming,1 mature PB, 1 new PB. Grows sitting in a pool of water, loves it. The flower below is actually darker in person.

$40 - Phrag calurum: 1old pb, 1 currently blooming, 3 mature, 4new - in spike. Also grows sitting in about an inch of water, loves it.

$45 - Enc cochleata ('Seible's' x 'Spy Hill' AM/AOS): 11 PBs with 2 new starts, three spikes in bloom - gorgeous flowers on this thing, just too big of a plant now. I’ve been told this thing might be awardable – it’s just too big for me :-( This baby is heavy, it’s potted in hydroton and growing as semi-hydro, and loving it. I can unpot and send bare root for shipping, which is probably wise due to the weight.

Hmmm... no interest. Okay, well let's try this. Make me an offer :-) Otherwise, these babies are meeting their maker soon.

Hmmm ....No local orchid clubs in your area? I would certainly think they'd gladly take plant donations. Seems a bit harsh for big healthy plants to 'meet their maker'!

I'll take them for free (at least the slippers) if your going to let them meet their maker!
