Win some; lose some. I was fortunate enough to be at the Atlanta orchid society meeting a few months ago and met Troy Meyers and signed up for some very nice flasks. Plus I came home with 10 of his beautiful Paph and Phrag seedlings. It's always about being in the right place at the right time. I feel lucky to have been there as it was my first meeting since joining AOS. I also feel extremely fortunate to have met people from all over the world here and make some nice connections to enhance my collection. This is a great site for the slipper enthusiast. Thanks
