2018 SEPOS show is this Friday Saturday and Sunday

[cnycharles]

Unless things change, I’ll be helping clerk for aos judging Friday morning, and helping njos with takedown of their display Sunday afternoon. Anyone else going this year?

I will be there Friday AM for judging, although since my center lost my 2013 application and I am not officially a student I guess I could call it "clerking"!!! .
See you there.

I will be going on Friday afternoon. First time in this show!

I just bought all the corybas!
Just kidding I only bought three, there are lots left. Lots of very nice plants everywhere including these



I have to say it’s very dangerous being at a show when all of the cool orchids haven’t sold out yet... I’ve already spent $75 on five little things and it could expand tremendously if I get crazy

Btw, Ben of AA or Malaysia orchids went crazy and brought a huge selection of bulbophyllum species. If someone wanted me to look for a particular species tomorrow after judging I could do so.

I heard back from Ben and he doesn’t have these species available at the show

What did you buy Eric?

 

[CarlG]

I recently returned from the SEPOS show. I must say that the woman from Ecuagenera is very good at selling plants - I spent almost twice what I planned to at that vendor.

Everything! !

Lol

Who was selling for Ten Shin? Barry W?

Charles-
Those two Paphs look like they are display plants.
I would love that Fumi's Delight! Big and chunky flower on a small plant!
It's sitting behind hangianum but looks about as big or even larger.

Eric- how many spike are there on that Tolumnia??

 

[NYEric]

Yes, Barry was there. Matt is in British Columbia.

The Tolumnia I bought has 9 blooming inflourescens. One thing I noticed and the photos show is that for the first time vendors are growing and selling big blooming plants like those in their displays. Big PEOs, etc..

Yes the two yellow paphs were in a commercial display or commercial owned plants in a big display. The fumi’s delight was huge. I was able to help clerk ribbon judging, both of those got ribbons. I’d never seen a FD so big, of course most I’ve seen are pictured here or somewhere else. There was a decent one for sale flowering in I think in fishing creek orchids vendor area, much smaller. The FD had two pouch abrasions from transport and handling; didn’t affect ribbon judging but may have affected selection for aos judging. I couldn’t observe aos judging, needed to go back to work for a few hours to help pay for plants. The hangianum was also very nice

For anyone who lives in the general area of the show venue, my condolences on the vast volume of traffic! The venue itself is very nice, the lighting now is different and the type and quality is much better
