Good bellatulum breeding on E-bay

[Bob in Albany N.Y.]

I noticed that seller Orchitn is offering the same two crosses of bellatulum that Sam in offering from Orchid Inn. The two crosses offered are 'Standing Tall' x 'Red on Red' and 'Yellow Bird' x 'Yellow Sunset'. They are both at a buy it now price of $25. I just bought two of the yellow crosses from Piping Rock for $38 each. These however were in bud. Personally, I contacted him and bought one more of the Yellow cross and 3 of the Standing Tall cross. I don't care if you guys buy any of these or not but just thought I'd give you a heads up.

Species!?! No really, I already have a bellatulum, really!

Eric, I too have some bellatulum. The question is do you have a quality bellatulum. I've bought many of the bellatulum, niveum, and concolor over the last couple of years. I'm still looking for that real quality one.

Why not just buy them from Sam himself?

Why not just buy them from Sam himself?

I mean to ask the same question too. There is no difference in prices.

The ones I got off of E-bay are of a much larger size then the ones that I purchased from Sam last Nov. Naturally, we are talking about different parents on the bellatulum that I purchased then. Also I obtained free shipping by purchasing a min. of 4 plants.

Needless to say these came from Sam originally. Don't get me wrong, I love all of Sams breeding. It's all about size and money.

Nobody can fault you for telling the truth.

So, I'm assuming the seller bought a flask from Sam originally. I've got a bellatulum opening right now. First bloom from Sherwood Orchids. Crossing my fingers it's a nice one.
