Tom Mirenda in New Hampshire

[Gcroz]

Tom Mirenda will be speaking at New Hampshire Orchid Society about Costa Rican Orchids on March 9th, 2013. Immediately following will be an auction of Dr. Marty Epstein's collection of species orchids. Dr. Epstein is a master grower and has lovingly tended his orchids for many decades.

I will post the auction site as soon as the list of plants becomes available. There are many rare and hard to find species on this list, you do not want to miss this opportunity.

Tom is very knowledgable. Hmmm.. Please do post the list.

Tom is very knowledgeable... and Dr. Epstein is one of the last "Orchid Hunters" you'll ever meet! This auction surely heralds the end of an era...

Dr. Epstein's plants will be for sale??? How come Tom doesn't claim them for the Smithsonian.

I really enjoy Miranda's articles in Orchids.

Tom is mentioned in a newspaper article today (subsidiary of Washington Post):
