Wow Nel! I had no idea that you ran a ranch! How many head of cattle do you have? Those orchids are absolutely unbelievable, but they always are on your channel. Thank you for sharing. Now that I know how busy you are. It makes it that much more special.
Hi Rosana. I looooooooove my pot! It’s so beautiful. I really love the shape. I quickly found the perfect orchid for it. Thank you for my gifts. I can’t wait to see my orchid bloom. What a great flower.
Happy Birthday Weekend indeed!! That's a fabulous & gorgeous haul! Thank you for showing and sharing which vendors/nurseries you got them from, as well as the upcoming events. I'll be checking them out. I've only been to a few shows located on the West Coast. 😍💗
Nelson ! I so much enjoy your choosing of precious plants, varieties and above all, the colors and uniqueness of designs that they are producing. Give me the rain forest and I will live a perfect lifetime. Maybe I will choose that style of living for my next lifetime on Beautiful Mother Earth 🌎 💜🕊 Glad you rewarded your efforts on your birthday, makes all more memorable 💖
Sign me up for rainforest living! I always dreamed of living inside the jungle in a huge treehouse. I spent my childhood building treehouses. So much fun! Some day perhaps that dream will happen. 🤗
Loved your haul at Pam’s. I loved even more your message about the orchid community needing to come together. Times are changing and together is definitely better and the direction we all need to go. ❤
Nelson me encanto tu video inporta lo largo que sea yo siempre lo disfruto fue un placer saludarte en tu cumpleaños at Krull smith yo soy Rosa la Que los llamo Los tres mosqueteros a ti , Laz and Blanca ❤️
That yellow Phal is the sunniest yellow Phal that has ever graced my eyes. I normally prefer darker yellows, but that is an exception I'd make without hesitation.
Wow!! Fantastic haul!! I have the Sol Taino orchid and the Thompsoniana X violacea one, both also from Pam, and they are amazing!! You're gonna love them! Pam said the Sol Taino hybrid comes from Puerto Rico, hence the name. Also that Paphiopedilum at the end was breathtaking!!! So amazing with that white butterfly going across it. I think that's a sign that it should be your signature orchid!!
Hey Emmanuel! You know I thought the same about Taino Indians of Puerto Rico. It makes all the sense in the world now. Thanks for that info. Didn’t know. I’m head over heels about that Paph. It’s just perfect. The butterfly was perfect in the end. I always think of my mom when I see a white butterfly. 🤍
Hi Nelson! I love your channel! Thanks for all you do! I'm so envious of orchid growing outside all year long. I am just starting out. I am in Pennsylvania. I thought of you when I saw this video from Longwood Gardens, close to me. The history of the orchids is amazing and I know you love all the information and history of orchids. I hope you don't mind that I posted this. Search for Summer Rayne Oakes- Longwood Gardens Orchid Conservatory Tour. I hope to one day meet you and all your friends. I feel like family just watching your videos. Thanks again. Theresa💖
First and foremost thank you for your contribution to my channel. It helps greatly. I do follow Summer Rayne. I love her format and she’s been an inspiration to me. I believe I’ve seen that video already. But I’ll check it out again. 💚🙏🏼🫶🏼
Wow 🤩 I can’t pick a favorite so many good things added to your collection I am so happy for you 🤗. I see the vision and get what you are saying about being more selective. I am so excited for the next show going through orchid withdrawals 😂
Hey Justine! I gotta say I love my Talumnia that we picked together for the mount you made me. It looks adorable. And yes, I’m being way more selective. We are in the process of expanding so I want to only get what I want in my collection. We tend to buy orchids sometimes out of impulse. 😎
What an amazing group of orchids you have. You’re going to have to enclose and add on a greenhouse on to your extra room. Thanks for the great orchid show
Wow, thank you for sharing your wonderful weekend with us. I am so happy you had a good time ,your credit card probably not, but hey, this is our life.😊😊😊💚💚💚 plus you are so good caring for your orchids so it is like investment,
Another incredible haul. Your collection is awesome. Boy has it grown. The white Cattleya and Dendrobium are stunning. You make me want to shop. I just got from Jeff the Gram Scriptum. It’s huge and what a beautiful plant. I miss seeing your collars together. Thank you for sharing, the education and joy you bring to me! I got my oriental smile from Pam’s son as well. So happy.
its great that you gave back too yourself because you do a fantastic job at making these videos for us to enjoy, not only that you do a great job at plant husbandry! your plants are top notch with care. its not easy growing plants in general, especially orchids, to the look or level that you do. its why a lot of orchid suppliers and growers give you orchids, because they know you will cherish and take care of them the way you should and grow them to their potential and that you really do appreciate the gifts. keep being you, your energy is great!!
Loved seeing your haul! You have added so many lovely orchids to your large collection. Especially glad to see that you added that beautiful paph from Krull-Smith to your collection. By the way, I did mail order a couple of orchids off the "Orchids in Bloom" website following your Part 1 video. Received two beautiful, carefully packaged plants. Quick, professional attention to my order. I would recommend them to other viewers. Thanks for taking the time to make this wonderful, entertaining video.
Hi Pat! I’m so happy to hear your review on Orchids In Bloom. I always buy directly from them so I’m not familiar with their packaging. Very happy to hear of this. Enjoy your new arrivals.
Another OUTSTANDING post Nelson and again great helpful advice as always, good to see that you are purchasing the orchids that you wanted and what a great selection of orchids because later in life you will always regret not buying them keep the good work up Mitch from Australia.
Hello Mitch! I couldn’t agree more. Orchids bring us so much joy. It’s definitely my medicine. So why not get those that I desire most for my collection. We are in the middle of extending my greenhouse. Very excited for the extra space. I’ll be sharing that very soon!
I have about 27 orchids and cactus and some other plants. I would like some suggestions on how do you take care of them all? I enjoy them and I enjoy taking care of them, but it’s so time consuming. I didn’t get to all of them on my day off yesterday and I feel bad. I’m think if I could work a system that would make it easier like one section one day and another the next? I’m even rethink about Redland show, because I think I reached my limit.

I was so disappointed to learn that the yellow with white edge phaleanopsis did not have a name. I live in another country and would import those by the tens for my garden but there is no chance of getting the proper permit without being identiffied. Overall, tho, the presentation was excellent and greatly appreciated, as always.
I’ve been wanting to ask you about your arachnis…..I just ordered one and it’s only a foot tall so I don’t have to worry about cutting it for a long time but I wanted to ask about when you chop them in half do you let the cut dry out before you put it in the medium?
Médium? No there is no medium in Arachnis. You just put the cane on the ground and tie it to a tree or a chicken wire cylinder like the towers I’ve done.
We met 18 years ago in South Beach at an outdoor cafe. He was invited to sit at our table by a friend of mine who knew him. Now the crazy part about this was that the friend was my ex which we had stayed friends after the breakup. He realized I was interested in Luíz and he did everything possible for me to end up sitting next to Luíz. We talked for a while and exchanged numbers. The following day we spent the day just hanging out. We both were hooked. 18 years later we love each other even more so. ❤️
Lol! You do realize kids still wear patchouli oil today. I remember smelling a girl in the hallway as she walked by. I asked her and she said Dark Wood Patchouli! Ever since I’ve loved it.
@@naturenel I wore a lot of Coty Wild Musk Oil. I live in rural Oregon, so I think I am kind of out of touch with what the kids are wearing today. Glad patchouli is still being worn, makes me happy..
Wow Nelson you out did yourself with such beautiful orchids. What a great haul. So amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Annetta! Glad you enjoyed it. 👍🏼💚
@@naturenel wish i was nearby, but when they have the shows it is not a good time for me to come over there from The Bahamas. Maybe one day soon.
Wow such a great haul the orchids are all beautiful.A vast variation of colors and so healthy.Thanks for sharing
Thanks for visiting. 💚
Wow Nel! I had no idea that you ran a ranch! How many head of cattle do you have? Those orchids are absolutely unbelievable, but they always are on your channel. Thank you for sharing.
Now that I know how busy you are. It makes it that much more special.
Cattle? lol!!!!! I have crops. Lots of them. No livestock.
Very nice haul, I have to say the yellow phal. was so pretty, I have to favor that one. They are all special to you. Thanks for sharing💚💚

Absolutely! There is always some disgruntled person out there trying to divide. I’m not on board with that at all. Togetherness is where we blossom. 🌸
I can't wait to see what you are going get at Redlands.
Well, that’s it for now. We’re building an extension to my shadehouse to fit all the new orchids plus another 40 orchids I have in my work area.
Thank you Nelson, you truly are a special person! Awesome videos. 🤗🌸🤗🌸
You are so welcome! 🤗

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed the crazy haul.
That yellow Phal is the sunniest yellow Phal that has ever graced my eyes. I normally prefer darker yellows, but that is an exception I'd make without hesitation.
I couldn’t agree more. I am so in love with that flower. I’m entering my “yellow flower” era. And what a perfect flower to start with. 🤩
And the last Paph is spectacular!
Wow!! Fantastic haul!! I have the Sol Taino orchid and the Thompsoniana X violacea one, both also from Pam, and they are amazing!! You're gonna love them!
