Giveaway Orchid Seedlings Bulbo plumatum, Sarcochilus ceciliae, and Sedirea Japonica

All of these were deflasked earlier this year and have been hardening up for a while now in intermediate temps. Many have started new growth. These are very young plants and could take YEARS to flower, so keep that in mind.

All you need to do is post up a photo of something TINY! The winner will be picked by my 14 year old son.

General info: http://www.orchidspecies.com/sarcceciliae.htm, http://www.orchidspecies.com/rhytplumata.htm, and http://www.orchidspecies.com/sedireaaponica.htm

1. Continential US only.
2. You must be an active(ish) member of the forums, if you only post in giveaway threads, move on.
3. We will be shipping out between 19-29 Sept, so you must be able to work around that and we will pick the shipping day . No extra packing days or trips to the post office!
4. You post up a giveway some time before it gets too cold to ship, the expection to this rule is those that clearly fit into the beginner category and have nothing to offer AND are active(ish) members (see rule 2).
 
Will there be 3 winners, or does 1 winner take all? What day does the giveaway end?

Either way, I'll get this started. It's been years since I've kept any orchids and I can't pass up the chance!

This is Brookesia micra. It is the smallest known chameleon in the world! It grows up to 1.1 inches in size!

This is an adult Brookesia micra. It is the smallest known chameleon in the world! It grows up to 1.1 inches in size!

Winner takes all, less packing for us. This will end Thur or Fri.

I'll have to look up that tiny chameleon never heard of it.
 
Tiny duckweed flowers.

The picture has a copyright so I posted a link to it.

I tried to find a picture of a real microscopic motor but had no luck. I found only computer generated models.

Wait... maybe I need to post one of my pictures?

Oh. That disqualifies me. I've had this account for a long time but rarely post here. Sorry.

Really?!? Holy crap on a bun! Sweetness!

I REALLY expected that lil chameleon to win it. Lil bugger is cute as the dickens! Perhaps the T had a "coolness factor" with being blue and all.

Thanks for the giveaway, RSS! Pm'ing ya now....

Tardigrades ,also known as waterbears or moss piglets, are water-dwelling, segmented micro-animals, with eight legs

Tardigrades can withstand temperatures from just above absolute ZERO to well above the boiling point of water, pressures about six times greater than those found in the deepest ocean trenches, ionizing radiation at doses hundreds of times higher than the lethal dose for a human, and the vacuum of outer space.

They can go without food or water for more than 10 years, drying out to the point where they are 3% or less water, only to rehydrate, forage, and reproduce.

I know this i old, thought this was neat
