Beautiful orchids!!
I met the owners Peter and Joe at an orchid show in Virginia a couple of years ago. They are rock solid experts and so friendly and accommodating. Everything I have bought from them is still healthy and going strong!!
That's awesome. I'd definitely order from them again. The quality was top notch! Thanks for watching ☺️
I agreed. wonderful miniature Vanda haul. the sellers from Classic orchid are really nicest people; The last time , I bought orchids from them, they gave me a bonus orchid!
That's awesome! They are great vendors!
Beautiful beautiful 🪴🌸♥️ Yes I love vanda’s as well. Thanks for sharing…..
Orchids classic is the best 👍🏻
They are great! This was my first order, I'd certainly order again ☺️
Wow 🤩. I loved them all. This was a super great Vanda haul. Enjoy 😊. 🤗
Thanks so much for watching! They sent some awesome ones!
Oh wow Nicole what beautiful blooms and Vandas you got great haul Nicole 👍
Thanks so much for watching Stephen! I hope you're doing well ❣️
@@NicoleDeanna I'm ok thanks Nicola how are you
Absolutely gorgeous box of flowers. Like vandas & only have 3. Lot's of cattleyas. The yellow with the red lip is my favorite. May have to try it.
That was my favorite also! It smells divine! Thanks so much for watching ☺️
Congrats, i love miniature vandas, still waiting for mine to bloom.
Thanks so much for watching! They are lovely, the fragrance is what gets me with these ☺️
They are all beautiful 🌻🌼🌷🌞
Thanks so much Preston!
Yep Nicole, this is one of the best hauls, I’ve seen that’s out of the ordinary too!! Now I’m hooked. I only have a falcata and a falcata red colored hybrid!! You find great places for purchases!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks so much! I like to share so others can see. I bought this because a friend bought this box and she showed me her haul and I was in love. I had to get the box too 💗
Lovely haul. Enjoyed the unboxing. Neofinetias are on my wishlist. Relieved my first falcata today. Loved your bloom collection too. Happy growing!
Thanks so much for watching! Neos are wonderful ❤️
That really is an amazing deal, $20 for each plant, shipping included and many in bloom. You will love Vanda Peaches I think. In the afternoon light, it has a peach like fragrance, it isn't powerful but it permeates the air (I can smell it at quite a distance outside). I find it to be easy to grow and bloom, mine gets pretty neglected and still blooms every year (I think it is spiking now). I don't need 8 but now I'm tempted to buy the three for $60.
P.S. I see that Sunset is out for delivery today. Hope you've made room for it. 😉
How special. That is a nice collection
Thanks Michelle!
I love them all!!
Thank you! So much repotting to do ☺️
Also, Virgil should have a crazy good sweet jasmine fragrance. I got the white/fuchsia form and it is SO GOOD.
Virgil smells wonderful! I love it! The blooms are so nice too ☺️
Nice haul! ❤
Todd recommended me to order there and yet has not happened. Looks really good! “No more space” = “make another shelf” yeah, that’s how we do it! ☺️
Exactly 😂😂😂😭😭😭
Oh goodness me 🤩🤩 jewels, Nicole!! Treasured jewels! What a great haul!! No need to tell you to enjoy 😬😍
Thanks for watching Nina 😊
WOW! I am loving these I think I am going to have to order as well! These are adorable!
Thanks so much for watching. I was very happy with this haul! :)
WOW, JUST WOW!!!😲
What a gorgeous order! I love these smaller vandas, they are so cute as plants, and the blooms are adorable!
Thanks so much for watching! I love them, so dainty yet fragrant ❣️
Gorgeous neos! I am the same way, I love compact varieties too bit I haven’t picked up very many since I have a bit of trouble growing them. They just dry out soo fast
Thanks so much! I find some do well for me I'm semi hydro. You could give one a go and see if it works for you so they can stay more moist.
Hi, love your videos
Thank you so much 🤗 I appreciate the kind words!
I agree with you!!! Mini vandas are my favorites as well!!!
Aren't they wonderful? The fragrance, the size 🥰 They are the best!!!
@@NicoleDeanna the perfect plants!!!
Hello Nicole...new subscriber down here 👋👋 I love orchid classics, have ordered from them few times. Im not a fan of neos, actually dont have any in my collection but I do love how they smell. ♥️
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing 🤗 I'd definitely order from orchid classics again!
Nice haul. Great price. 🍑
Thanks for watching Sheila! I agree, the price was great for what I got 😊
Thanks Nicole, mini vandas yes, I have a neofinetia falcata, they are so easy to manage and so different from full-size vandas.
Aren't they nice?! The compact size aspect I really like, but what really draws me in is that wonderful fragrance they emit. They are also ready to grow under lights ☺️
I recently ordered from them and I really love the quality and packaging. They even gave me a bonus orchid!
That's awesome! Thanks for watching :)
Congratulations on your new babies, they are beautiful! I really like orchidclassics4u they have good vandas.
Thanks so much! I really liked the quality of what they sent 😊
A most awesome haul! They're all very nice!
Thank you for watching ☺️
This is a great haul! Going to be ordering this for my orchid collection. Love the mini vanda and this is such a great deal! Thanks for sharing!
Such a great deal! You're going to get some really nice ones. Thanks for watching! ☺️
I finally got my order and all are in bloom! There were some with some black spot, which I am assuming they are fungal infection. Just wondering if you repotted yours and how to treat the fungal infection.
@@thanthanlee4010 I'm so glad they were all in bloom for you! I would take a picture and reach out to them to get their feedback. Not sure how it looks or how many of the orchids have spotting, but you can do a physan 20 spray to be safe. If you don't have that some hydrogen peroxide can also be used in a pinch. I'd reach out with a photo though and get their feedback! I haven't repotted yet but will next weekend
@@NicoleDeanna okay. Thanks for the advice.
You definitely need a new shelf. Those are gorgeous and healthy mini Vandas, they are lovely ❤️
Thanks so much Fernanda ❤️ I think so too. I need more space now haha
What a popping little haul!! So cute those blooms!!! Oye paving the way dique "I think I might have to get a new shelf" hahaha great video!! 💖🌿😍😍😍
Yes😭😂 I'm running out of space! Now ...I need a new shelf .... 😭🤠 Lol!!
@@NicoleDeanna hahahaa I can’t 😂😂 the struggle we all face!
I like the Virgil... You will need a new shelf lol
Me too! I think that's my favorite of the box, so hard to pick!
Nice collection...madam
Many thanks, and apologies for my delayed response!
so happy this order turned out as good for you as it did for me!
also: ASMR newspaper unwrapping should be a side channel ;)
It was amazing! Wouldn't have ordered if it wasn't for seeing your WONDERFUL box!
I missed where you ordered from. Beautiful and in bloom too.
Orchidclassics 4 u is the page, I linked it in the description :)) thanks for watching!
I've ordered from them, I like there orchids for the most part, I've had a couple bad ones. Other than that mostly great plants. I've been considering getting the same as you got there.
Thanks Todd! I remember you told me once you like the smaller Vandas too. If you get the box, let me know how it goes! I'd love to see it 🙂 Hope you're doing better this week!
@@NicoleDeanna fully recovered, cold is gone finally!
Wiw great haul. Can you please show us how you install the shelves? Did you use plexi glass on your shlves?
Thanks for watching! About a month ago I did a video on a spring cleaning of the shelves where I took off the liners to clean them out. I have the liners linked in the description below :)
@@NicoleDeanna thanks
I ordered 4 orchids from them. 2 were fine, one were very sick and died on me, and one has virus which I don’t know if I should keep. I should have asked for a refund but I was new to the orchid world at the time and thought that was normal.
Ugh, I'm sorry to hear that, I would reach out to them next time. That's awful :(
We need an update video . How are now?
Check out the orchids I killed video lol. I have half of them, but I mismanaged watering some of them last summer and sadly I lost a few.
