Beside Slipper orchids and fragrant species I like to collect unusual species and hybrids.
I spotted this on eBay. Wasn't this what the book, "The Orchid Thief" was about in that movie 'Adaptation'?!

That's weird. It's a direct post thru my Google Chrome to eBay. $550 for the plants!!!

Maybe it is very expensive not because of its rarity but because of its growing "speed". More than 10 years from seedling to blooming size.
