Mericlones

Today I visited an old friend who owns an orchid nursery in SOUTH Miami, way South, but still Miami. His place is huge and full of orchid flowers. But what is interesting is this shot: his Vanda seedling about ready for sale. He told me these are award winning mericlones (you can Google this word to see what it means) and each plant this size fetches about US $75. We are looking at a LOT of money here. They are flowering size, and when the flowers come out, their price should about double or triple, depending on the quality of the flowers.
