With a heavy heart I'm once again finding myself in need of reducing the number of my orchidaceous wards as listed below. pb means previously bloomed. Shipping will be figured based on what you get and where you are--I usually use priority mail. I accept Paypal. A portion of the proceeds will be bestowed on our beloved forum's host :thumbsup:

My time/ability to keep an eye on this thread is extremely limited during the week so make your reservations via email to my gmail address which is shadycharactermark at gmail dot com. First come, first served.

Thanks!

Mark,

Do you have any pictures posted of the Nerissa x primulinum flower? I couldn't even find a pic of the Nerissa via Google. Also, is this a big grower or more compact?

thanks,
Carolyn

Here's Nerissa x primulinum. I'd say it's about a foot spread. The leaves are a little lax so it doesn't take up as much room as it could. Note: there's some foreshortening in this photo that makes the flower look huge in comparison to the plant. It's not that big!

Oh My! The Nerissa x primulinum is such a beauty! Compact, healthy, and so many new leads that I'll probably never see the next spike until it's a spike!

Luckily I got to the package before DH got home, and snuck it in...:Party: so he doesn't even know that I have it! :woohoo:

Many thanks Mark!
