It was a nice show (at least the first two days) and Tower Hill Botanic Garden was much better venue (IMHO) than the last two years. I'm afraid the weather today (near hurricane gales and rain) is not going to help attendance though.

Had a blast learning how to construct a display (NHOS got a first ribbon) and clerking w/ Brian on the Paph team and FINALLY met Peter Cataldo! :)

Good times...

Here are some of the displays.

Kelley's Korner (I always love Ulla's fountain!)

J & L 1, 2, & 3 (they got my vote for best display. Usually do, although Mountain Orchids and their Wardian case is always amazing. Hard to photograph tho! I could stare at their displays for hours!)

Great looking show! I always enjoyed setting up and clerking, kinda adds another dimension to the hobby and it is always great getting to know others with the same love. I swear now a days orchid shows are like family reunions.

Yes nice photos. It's funny about J&L, the nicest stuf they have is in the closed area of their greenhouse and I'm sure never sees the outside world. They finally are selling some nice large Masd's; and I stopped killing them once I set up the ultrasonic fogger.

Whoah! Three members is certainly enough to consider that a SlipperTalk party.

Did anyone happen to talk to the vendor Brennan's Orchids?
