i have scored orchids like that for 1-2$ at lowes on many occasions. i've come to accept that i dont get along with phaelanopsis orchids tho. dendrobiums either i dont think. lol. not sure about cattleyas yet but i can grow vandas and epicats!
PunkinPeep; Thank you, They sure did catch my attention as I wandered by.
Ron; No ladder darn it! This took cold hard cash and a cart.
Beefy; The reason the Flamingo gets around so well is because of those fine legs I added.
Vfem; Thank you. I think you can grow them if you have the right place for them, time will provide!
Crystal; Hey look I spelled your name right! I have spelled it wrong a few times now and you have been a great sport about it and never said anything! Thanks!
I re potted my Ponies and will post in the morning. I put all of them in there own pots for now. I have one nice sized one in a 14" pot it has been with us for about 6 years now.
Yesterday was a FANTASTIC score day for me! Roger and I went yardsaling (is that even a word?) and stopped at a friends house to pick up milk jugs and egg cartons. OMG, she had SO MANY things that I HAD to HAVE!
By the time we left there was no more room in the back of our old Volvo wagon. This is what it looked like after unloading and sticking in a bucket of rainwater:
This is what they looked like after potting:
There are 4 hedge-type bushes, 5 redbud saplings, some wavy-leafed bush of some sort, 5 Elberta peach trees, 3 Queen Anne climbing rose cuttings, and honeysuckle vines. All of the trees are rooted already
Honeysuckle hasn't been planted yet (but will be soon).
And thanks to Ron, who showed me something that I didn't even know existed then had to have some - UMBRELLA GRASS!
