        you could buy the big plants from £2 up to £6 for the vanilla orchids ....same story with the seedling 3 for £1 up to 6 x£10 for the rare and new hybrid .
        If you see in picture n6 they are all new hybrid and some of them are really tiny species.
        what it really stop me to buy them is the growing condition , the humidity in there was at 90% and temperature of 30 to 34 in the day and 20 to 24 at night.......they where to nice to be killed by the English weather , but I`ve put in consideration to build a fish tank for the orchids or something similar.

          Looks much like the one near my son living in Bangkok. He has loads now growing in his back garden. Lovely pictures and a delight to look at
