I just got my new orchid in the mail and it is quite large w. a young bud already on it which is surprising considering it was only $20 with shipping included.
I don't think I will have to wait a whole 2 years for this baby to bloom. I missed going to the flea market this wednesday
so will probably go to the thrift shop to look for more oriental planters and cache pots. Amazon has a good deal
on them online as you can see by my previous post. As soon as I find out if I am coming or going I will decide if I want to order another orchid. I have my favorites already saved to order from ebay below.
My learning experiences with orchids, learning how to buy them. Experiences I've had growing orchids and dividing orchids. Buying orchid pots and oriental porcelain and ceramic planters and cache pots to put my potted orchids in.

Where to Find Orchids
I have decided to go to the local flea and farmers market here at the Volusia County Fairgrounds every Wednesday
to look for oriental cache pots and orchid planters. There is also a lady there that sells blooming Cattleya orchids for only $15.
They are not very magnificent looking but the cheapest blooming orchids I have ever seen. I have not bought from her yet as I prefer
to buy bright splashy orchid plants and wait the 2 years to see them bloom. I will just be checking to see if she has any impressive looking orchids each time I go there. She does have the more common phaleonopsis orchids without flowers for only $3 so I may buy some of those. I have also seen those types of orchids on the clearance racks at Lowes for $8. So remember when you go
to your local Lowes and Home Depot to look at their clearance racks for plants. If you click below you may see some orchids
at great prices that you may have a hankering to buy. I always save them to My Ebay wish list and get myself one as a treat every now and then.
