I buy plants that are marked down at stores that need to be re-potted. This way I get nice plants, but at a bargain price and save the life of a plant. This was in a broken pot with no blooms. It was my first time to grow an orchid.

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing. The satisfaction you get must feel wonderful.
I envy you...this is the one plant I want to grow and surround myself with.....maybe I'll see what I can rescue from the neighborhood nurseries. I already rescue bichon frises.
Oh what a beautiful combination - rescued plants and rescued doggies. I love it. Don't tell anyone, but orchids are easy to grow.
My Mom said she bought some dried up discounted plants at a local store. Some were as low as .10 to .50 cents ea. She said she figured if they didn't come back out, she'd not lost much.
