I went to an orchid show today!! It was amazing! I’d never been to a plant convention before and I don’t know much about orchids specifically, I will admit. But it was still so cool and stunning. And smelled heavenly!

I totally blew my budget buying from the plant and artist vendors 🤭 I was really excited that Ecuagenera (Ecuadorian plant importers) were there with lots of fancy aroids too, since those are more my specialty. I heard about the show last minute (and I’m so glad I did), but apparently they allow pre-orders that you can pick up at shows they go to without paying shipping/import. So I’ll have to do that next time 😂 I still got a FANTASTIC haul! Philodendron bicolor, Antherium luxurians, and my first exotic orchid: a humble cucumber orchid! It looks like baby pickles 🤣💚 And I didn’t stop there, I hit three plant stores on the way home and got a Philodendron mottled dragon! THAT’S it. That’s my quota! I really truly cannot get more plants without having a plant room sale/giveaway lol

For sure! This club certainly has a number of experts! I wish I didn’t live over an hour away. I bet there’s sooo much to learn from them
