SELLING THE ENTIRE COLLECTION

Posted June 29th. In 2008 I sold about 400 orchids of my collection here on Orchid Mall classified. I have decided to donate a year of my life, maybe more, to work with orchid conservation and other tasks in Ecuador. The following are offered for sale. If you see something you'd like I ask that you email in the next few days, no later than July 5th. I will package and ship your oder for just the cost of Priority US Mail from SC. Also if you would like to follow my travels and efforts, please email.

I still have two special species:

Schomb (Mcp) tibicinis with 50 plus pseudobulbs

V limbata 'Caramel' with 4 blooming size secondary growths and a keiki.

If you are interested in these large specimen orchids, please call 3840102 A.C. 843

The sold and donated orchids have been removed from list. Thanks for stopping by.

Consider going on a tour to Ecuador or Peru. Machu Picchu? See page two & three.

Many, many yards of 3 different species of Vanilla which are spooled around posts anchored in 30 gallon pots although these are thriving mostly from their aerial roots.

Offering 15 foot lengths for $10 or willing to unpot and ship the entire specimen for $50! planifolia (partially sold) and the leafless dilloniana (partially sold) and an undetermined Bahamian specie (partially sold).
Each of the 3 specimen vanillas are now available for just $35! Shipping wt aprox. 25 lbs.

Email soon! Thanks,

The greenhouse was built to fit immediately adjacent to the rear (and unfortunately north) face of the 2 story house measuring 20 x 38 ft. The high corrugated lexan roof captures the sun all day. Everything is bolted and screwed together so it could be relocated. When the two halves are re-assembled as a free standing greenhouse it will be 19 x 40ft with a 19 x 20 ft second floor area possible (no floor to block light). Perhaps I'll call it the 'Orchid Barn'. The greenhouse has 8 'homerun' electric circuits to power the oil filled radiator type heaters used during the winter. Windows are double glazed and walls are insulated with 3.5 inch rigid insulation. The end panels have double layers polyethylene. The underside of the rafters have poly for the winter. The hanging area has chain link fence on the ceiling and for hanging orchids. The west end has a 4 x 20 ft wet wall. Two 'curtains' of the chain link hang near the wet wall for mounted orchids preferring cooler temps.
