Orchideen Lucke 100 Year anniversary

[Marc]

The German orchid nursery "Orchideen Lucke" is celebrating their 100 year anniversary this weekend. I visited the celebration this morning. A party tent was errected, and all guests were welcomed with a glass of "sekt". In the tent people could sit down to drink some coffee or a glass of beer. But enough chit chat, let's get to the photo's.

From the tent you could enter the area that is normally used for potting but a nice show had been build in the location were the potting table normally is.

Here are some shots from this area:

Paph. callasum

Paph. niveum

Phal. Penang Girl

In another section of the greenhouse there was also a small exposition of a society from Dortmund if I remember it correctly.

Dendrobium cuthbertsonii

Dendrobium cuthbertsonii

Paph. parishii

Paph. concolor

Paph. godefroyae

Of course I've seen plenty of other nice plants but I didn't feel like shooting pictures all the time and of course there were plants to be bought so I had to divide my attention.

I only bought two and I want to thank all the enablers here on this forum. Photo's of them are to be found somewere else.

I knew I should have made a topic about this, we could have shaked hands. Were you the person manning the small stand with the Cyps?

I tried to take a shot of that group of caudatums but for some reason I couldn't get the lighting right on my compact.
