Orchids in West Hartford, Conn.

[NYEric]

Hi, I'm going to a model train convention in Hartford, Ct. this week. Does anyone know if there are native orchids or an orchid vendor/greenhouse near there? :wink:

No commercial growers for miles.

If you are driving there you can always stop at J&L on the way...I don't think they carry Phrags but they do have some neat species.

Thanx, I know Cordelia and the crew well and got from them at the Parkside fest.

Sorry!

there's a place called domestic goddess orchids somewhere around there. i don't know anything about her, though or if the greenhouse is even open to the public...

I was going to call him and see if I could go up one day but something came up. I ~~THINK~~ he came to the COS meeting and showed some really nice plants...

Cool thanx, I'll call and try to stop by tomorrow. I'm back in NYC for the night. Man it's cold, wish the days would stay cool.
