Hillsview Gardens-Amazing

[luvsorchids]

Yesterday, in honor of my birthday (which is today), I took a little road trip down to the Portland, OR area. The main purpose was to visit Hillsview Gardens and meet Theresa (member here-Orchidmaven). To say she has amazing plants is an understatement :drool:. I would highly recommend a visit to anyone who is in the area. It was a joy to see all the wonderful plants and share some stimulating conversation. Also, a shameless plug for everyone to support our orchid vendor community in general so we can keep on feeding our addiction .

Oh, and if anyone asks...I had a "fairrie" good time .

Superb complex Paphs

Thanks for the tour, and happy birthday! That first masdevallia is stunning, do you know the cross? It looks like a back cross of veitchiana onto Angel Frost or some such thing.

Nice road trip! Happy Birthday! Are all the photos of plants that were for sale? Or, were some stock plants? They're all so beautiful! Those fairies are awesome!

 

[Bolero]

Wow! They don't have a bad plant in the place.

 

[SlipperFan]

Good choice, and happy birthday!

But it's not fair that I live so far away from this place!

I Agree

Yesterday I received 5 BEAUTIFUL Complex paphs from Theresa. They were EXTRA large, healthy, and 4 had mature buds one with a double. These are on sale now.
It is great to see your pictures, it's just as imagined.
IMHO (well not so humble maybe) the best Orchid store on internet.
HAPPY B'DAY
Carl

I ended up individually downloading some of the pics - very nice pictures and flowers!
