Start as you mean to go on.
 
On the way back from the last hospital appointment of the week we went
to Wyevale to see what they had reduced, got a couple of Large Azaleas
(Indoor) for £6.00 each down from £14.99 as well as 3 Odontoglossum
orchids at just £7.00 each

Splendid! I particularly like the yellow one - very nice indeed.
I rarely see Odontoglossoms at either of my local-ish Wyevales. I have
to consider myself lucky if I see a decent Cambria type. Miltoniopsis
occasionally shows up, but not in the best condition. You're very lucky
to get those at such decent prices. Keep up the good work.

I'd have a look now Spider they were brought in at a special price, and
they had 2 more boxes of them waiting to be put out.
Well worth a visit.

I'll drop a heavy hint, but all our Wyevales are a (hubby driven) car
trip away, so I'm not holding my breath. I'll probably just get the
usual "You've got too many orchids already". Mmmmm .. I'm not sure what
that means;~)

Had a look in Wyvales and noticed the grower

http://www.inca-orchids.nl/EN/index.php

Their site shows the correct scientific names for these orchids, some have 5
genera in their breeding.

Yes I did buy some with my Christmas money. :-)
