Wanted: Phrag. Barbara LeAnn

[silence882]

Hi all,

Does anyone have a Phrag. Barbara LeAnn they'd be willing to sell? Please shoot me a PM if so.

The more growths the better.

Thanks,

Wish I did have one big enough to divide Stephen. Good
luck.

Bought 1 from Seattle Orchid and found 2 on eBay!

 

[NYEric]

So you are set?

 

[silence882]

So you are set?

Yup

 

[NYEric]

Ok, I was going to start looking in the trays.

Thanks! But I am good.

 

[abax]

Good where?????

 

[silence882]

Good where?????

I am the okayest orchid grower I know!

The two I got from eBay arrived today and look very good. Although I'm not going to unpot to check the roots until they're done blooming.

Sweet.

Stephen, you devil you! Seattle Orchids is sold out and
you grabbed the two on ebay. Can't wait to see the blooms!

Yes, yes I did. And I would do it again! Except I have what I need so I'm fine. I've been looking for a good size Barbara LeAnn for a few years, so when I saw them I snapped them all up.

I am excited about the blooms as well. I wasn't expecting to find them in spike in the middle of the summer. And then to have the spikes survive shipping in the heat was even better.

Grabber's Luck! ;>)

It's like my sister used to say when we were kids, "You slow-you blow!", as she ate my dinner!

I just looked up how to get eBay to send e-mail alerts when items matching my search appear. Now I can swoop in a snatch up things right away!

Aren't older siblings just the best?

There are a couple more in spike available on eBay:

Different seller than I got mine from.

 

[abax]

I don't know this seller and the temps. here are in the mid-90s. Shipping USPS doesn't seem wise. Anyone do business with this seller?

I bought the plant, but haven't gotten notice that it can be delivered
via FedEx or UPS two day.

 

[NYEric]

Yes, Alex is cool and I believe he gets plants from the same place as Laima.

 

[SlipperFan]

Alex has good plants -- I have a bunch from him.

 

[abax]

Very good to hear. I will have my Barbara LeAnn by
Friday or Saturday via FedEx two day. Think good thoughts about the spike and this horrible heat wave.
