So sorry to hear about your situation, hope everything works out for the
best. Yes I would like to order some of your orchids, if you still have
them. They are:
Bulb. ecorntum, lishanensis, psychoon, tingabarinum
Dracula carderii, ophioceps
Masd. floribunda V. tuerckheimii
Pleurothallis cardiothallis, penelops, macrophlebals, schizopogon, tonduzii
Restrepia pelyx, trichoglossa, iris
If you still have these I would very much like to get them from you. I will
pay by paypal, just let me know the total + shipping. Thank you and the best
of luck. Raymond DeLozier-Dee's Orchids
