I leave tomorrow for the Japan Grand Prix International Orchid Show! This is probably one of the world's largest orchid shows.

I will be participating as an international judge on Friday, and will plan on taking my pictures on that day. I hear the crowds on Saturday are HUGE!!

Has anyone gone before? Any tips or suggestions?

Thanks,
Peter T.
 
Nice!!! I was planning to go this year but couldn't make it. I'll go next year though!!

Please take lots of pictures to share with us! The displays I have seen in the past are SUPERB!! :clap:

Have a safe and wonderful trip!
 
The imagination is stretched to the limit to think of a stadium filled with orchids.
Wonder how many vendors they have there?
Will you plan to buy any?

and also think of so many vendors if you want to go back to one, you can't remember which row & how far down they were!
One easily forgets how hard it might be to get plants back to the states. :(
I remember seeing a floorplan one year - OMG!!!

Yes, i do plan to buy some stuff. But only things that are not available here. I can only bring a few plants back. A friend is kind enough to bring them back as he has all the papers and stuff!

cool!
enjoy your new plants.

from the promo material, it seems that there'll be a kovachii, or maybe just seedlings....
