I blame Teresa! After posting all those beautiful pics, I couldn't help myself when I saw them for sale at our local Arboretum's spring sale. They were setting up their sales table during our local orchid society meeting the night before, so I had practically first choice of plants...now to find some ferns...

I know what you mean. I think I'm gonna have to try one soon.

LOL!!! Hey, what goes around comes around guys! I just mounted my new staghorn fern today... :mmwink:

That's a really lovely bonzai! I think it's lonely...

lol! I just got out of Bonsai. Even more expensive and time consuming than orchids for me so far ;) Good Luck!

Jon,

Very nice! I have a couple myself! They are a lot of fun!

thanks

I made sure I did not go out there Jon....I knew I would buy one also. It looks like a nice choice!

Nice one, Jon! If you ever find yourself in the Columbus OH area, you should visit their botanic gardens; they have some really beautiful bonsai. One spring when I visited, they were also having an informal orchid show, which was a nice bonus :)

Awesome Jon! One hobby at a time young man....

Hey Matt,
We have a show we do there every year, and I do indeed drool over their bonsai collection. That whole place is really impressive, wish I got up there more than just for shows. It was really cool a couple years ago when they had the Chihuly glass going on at the same time, but they still have some pieces that were donated around the conservatory.

Chihuly's been at Fairchild Tropical Garden in Miami the last 6 months or so. It was pretty cool to have their annual orchid show mixed in with the exhibit.
