Box of stuff

[limuhead]

So I mentioned to my friend on the Big Island that now that I moved from sea level to a place with higher elevation(1,100 Ft.) that I might want to try a few Phrags. Just opened a box from him with about 2 dozen Phrags, mostly species and kovachii crosses. Going to go pot them up, will post some pictures later...

Nice! A lot of species, just like I'd like it. What a generous friend!

Sorry gang, technology is not one of my strong points(yesterday my smart phone laughed at me and told me to get a grip). Took some pics and have to make dinner before I figure out how to post them.

Funny you should mention Quintal, Kai is hands down the BEST grower I have ever come across, and VERY generous. Not to mention a really nice guy...

anice collection you have now.

 

[wjs2nd]

Does your friend sell plants? Does he own a greenhouse?

 

[limuhead]

He sells plants, but strictly wholesale. He supplies big growers who sell at orchid shows and have websites. Most of what I got won't be available for a year or so.

 

[The Orchid Boy]

Loosk like a nice bunch of phrags you got. I ordered a Phrag. pearcei through a local vendor and they got it from Hawaii. I wonder who they got it from...
