Default Went to the store...

... And they had so many orchids to choose from.. I went with one particular
in mind which they didn't have.. I was just about to buy another kind (can't
remember its Latin name) but it was a moth orchid, if that means anything..
It had a very pretty flower, totally and absolutely white, with a little
tiny bit of yellow in the center of it.. And three or four more were about
to bloom..
I liked the idea of it not requiring very much light.. Though the
ventilation might provide a problem, unless I get a little fan of some sort.

But.. I really wanted an orchid with a fragrance.. I'm not sure where else
to look for it..
Mornington is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours away from me.. But if that's what's
going to take, I'll be driving there tomorrow morning.. Hopefully will find
something there..

The price at the nursery varied from orchid to orchid, but the most
expensive one was around AU$44, most of them in the $25-30 mark.


I'm really hoping to find something that I'll like..
Are scented orchids hard to find?
I know they're out there.. But I checked every single flower in the nursery
(they had about 50 different types).. And none of them had any distinctive
smell..
