I went to the GNYOS yesterday....the show itself was great, as always (see my phrag and cyp pictures posted in those areas). I'm not so sure I like the new arrangement...with the tents...it was better the past 2 years...but, still a great show, and of course, most of my time was spent at the vendor area. Met NY Eric as soon as I got there (he has the patience of a saint as he answers everyone's questions....just don't ask him about.....species!) and hung out with him the entire time, having lots of fun....got to have a great talk with Andy Philips, and bought a P. appletonianum with great foliage from him. As always, I spent a lot of time with Dennis and Maria D'Allesandro....Popow was there too (forget his first name). Hien- sorry I missed you...heard you were there the day before. Lien- Dennis and Popow were quite impressed when I told them about your greenhouse....tell us how it went when you guys got together. As for sales. lots of stuff, mostly nothing remarkable. I skimmed over most booths...just looked at the paphs.....some nice stuff..no great deals though....overall, the best deal I saw (according to my interests) were the tigrinum seedlings that Dennis was selling for $25...not huge, but tigrinum is a fast grower, and my seedling could conceivably be flowering size after another year or so. Take care, Eric
