Firstly, a few pics from the monthly night meeting on Thursday..

Maudiae alba (hardy's favourite, I'm sure.. ):

Manning Park:

Phrag Jason Fischer (one of the really few phrags here):

From the show today:
Beautiful blooming of a white phalie (some of you might think this is commonplace, but to achieve a blooming like this in Australia is quite an impressive feat):

Zygo:

Java-Maud (javanicum x Maudiae, I presume):

Great pics Li, thanks for showing !!!! I esp. like the specimen insigne, the villosum and fairrie of course!!!! Jean

 

[emydura]

Some amazing stuff there. The dark hardcane is a highlight. I wish my insigne's would flower like that. I'm lucky to get one or two flowers. That very last Paph looks quite pretty.

Hello Li,
I was going to call you this morning to to see if you were going but found I had deleted the PM with your phone number.

Did you see those huge Dendrobium speciosums on the trading table (well behind it, they were too big to go on it). $35 each and the guy could only fit 4 in an 8'x5' trailer. I couldn't resist and bought those and then went back to Ralph's home and ended up with about 300kgs of speciosums for around $200. Even in Australia you can buy orchids by the kg. Next problem,how to get them to Việt Nam?

btw: nice pics

Regard, Mick

Hi Mick. I went and left early. Lots for sale (cyms, dends, terrestrials) but not much that appeal to me. I didn't see the dends. you must have carted them away by then...
