Finally jumping back into this crazy, addicting hobby after being out of it for about 5-6yrs. I moved into a smaller home and had to bequeath my treasures to friends who were certified green thumbs. I could not help myself and gave in to a frenzied day on ebay, with the purchase of 12 plants...looking at another 12 today. The Gorgeous George was already in double sheath with buds filling in. These flowers opened on 9Oct. How I missed the heady scent of orchids greeting me in the early morning stillness.
