First Real Orchid Splurge.......

The next series of posts are the result of discovering a nursery that advertised orchids out the front.  I wandered into a shadehouse out the back and stumbled into a treasure trove of what appeared to be species plants.  Nothing was named and the owner had only a basic idea of what some of the plants were.  I spent about an hour helping her name some plants that I could identify.  Suprisingly, a few plants came home with me.  Generally the price was about 300 baht ($10 Aust) per plant, although there was one lash out purchase (see above).  All together all the following group of plants cost me 4,000 baht ($140 Aust) along with some cocnut husks for some repotting work.
